Lone Star Healthy Streams Workshop in Copperas Cove on July 29th


The Lone Star Healthy Streams program aims to educate Texas livestock producers and landowners on how to best protect Texas waterways from bacterial contamination associated with livestock production and feral hogs. By participating in this workshop, livestock producers and landowners can learn specific conservation practices that can help combat bacteria pollution and improve and protect the quality of Texas water bodies, specifically the Lampasas River and its tributaries. Three Texas Department of Agriculture general continuing education credits will be provided for certified pesticide applicators. To RSVP for the workshop, go to http://lshs.tamu.edu/workshops/ or call Matt Brown, Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service program specialist in College Station at 979-862-8072.
