Friday Symposium:
Advanced Techniques in Organic Agriculture
with Amigo Bob Cantisano
Occurred Friday,
November 13, 2009
9:00 am - 4:00 pm - Yakima Convention Center |
 This
one-day symposium detailed the latest in practical
farmer developments in the areas of composting, compost
teas, crop nutrition for improved disease and pest
management, foliar feeding, fertigation, fertilization
practices, cover cropping, weed control techniques and
pest management. The discussion was directed towards
the profitable production of organic fruits and
vegetables, based on Amigo’s 35-year farming and
consulting experience. |

Working with numerous clients, Amigo has
developed innovations for successful organic farming,
including monitoring techniques and equipment for
improved evaluation of crop health and productivity,
insectary plantings for improved bio-control,
home-brewed foliar feeds, better composting methods,
farmer-built compost tea machines and more. The
symposium focused on the needs of experienced
growers, yet topics covered were of use to farmers at
all levels of experience. Participants were encouraged to
send their questions and areas of interest to Amigo in
advance, in order to provide him with the opportunity to
address farmer issues within the context of the session.
