PS 3102 - Field Crops II

This course covers in detail the production practices of some of our major crops. Students learn to evaluate management techniques based on their economic and environmentally sound potential. As this is a fall course, the focus is on fall-season production activities. Students use field plots to evaluate how different management decisions made in the previous spring affect the crop in the fall. Farm experience is NOT required. Crop Science majors must take Field Crops I during the spring immediately before taking Field Crops II, which is offered every other year.

Prerequisite(s): PS 2202 - Field Crops I , or PS 2007 - Feed Grains and Forages.
