NEW POSTERS FEATURING FORAGES NOW AVAILABLE/SOUTHERN FORAGES BOOK NOW IN FOURTH EDITION
March 1, 2007–Norcross, Georgia, U.S.A.–Two new 24 x 30-inch posters, Forages Legumes and Forage Grasses, are now available from the International Plant Nutrition Institute (IPNI). Each poster features color photographs of 30 species of important forage plants, along with descriptive text on seeding/establishment, fertility needs, pest considerations, and other practical tips.
The posters were prepared by the authors of the popular book, Southern Forages. They are Dr. Don Ball, Auburn University; Dr. Carl Hoveland, University of Georgia; and Dr. Garry Lacefield, University of Kentucky. The book was first published in 1991 and has become a standard among farmers, educators, horse owners, individuals managing wildlife plots, and many others.
“The new posters provide one more level of information accessibility for the many people interested in forage grasses and legumes. We have seen the popularity and usefulness of the Southern Forages book for many types of audiences and believe the posters will effectively enhance understanding of forage production and management,” noted IPNI President Dr. Terry Roberts. Many of the species included on the posters are grown across large areas of North America and even in other countries.
The posters would be appropriate for display in classrooms, seed outlets and farm stores, Extension and soil/water conservation meeting rooms, farm offices, and various other settings.
A single poster is available for purchase at US$3.00 plus shipping. The cost for a set including one of each poster is US$8.00 sent folded or US$9.00 rolled in a mailing tube.
The Fourth Edition of the book Southern Forages was published by IPNI in early 2007 and is now available from IPNI for US$30.00 plus US$4.00 shipping and handling for a single copy. Discounts are available on larger quantities.
