As a reminder, MSU will also be hosting a series of interactive, bi-monthly (2x/month) Hop Chat Zoom meetings throughout the 2024 growing season to facilitate communication between hop producers and MSU faculty. The informal sessions will include crop and pest updates from MSU Extension’s Rob Sirrine and Erin Lizotte. In addition, MSU faculty will drop in to address timely issues and provide research project updates. Bring your field notes too! We want to hear what’s going on in your hopyard. Keep an eye out for registration details.
