Did you miss the ELDT Webinar?
On Tuesday, July 13th, IFCA held a public webinar to address the many calls and in person conversations with our members regarding FMCSA's Entry Level Driver Training (ELDT). In an effort to educate our members, we asked Kevin Duesterhaus from the Illinois Secretary of State and Dan Meyer from FMCSA to discuss the upcoming ELDT requirement.
FMCSA has made available
the Slideshow Presentation from the webinar.
It's Global Fertilizer Day! U.S. fertilizer companies employ close to 90,000 people, and the fertilizer industry contributes $155 billion to the U.S. economy. Fertilizer also accounts for 50% of the global food production. Farmers are growing more with less thanks to science, the 4Rs, and technology.
Check out Dr. Nafziger's latest Bulletin, 'Fall Decisions, Fall 2021', to read up on fertilizer prices, the MRTN rate, soil test levels and soil temperatures.
