Michigan State University is part of a three-state effort with
University of Illinois and Purdue University to pool their expertise on
agroecology and organic practices at one readily accessible web site.
The information is further enhanced through a partnership with
experienced organic growers in the three states. 
You can read the seasonal bi-weekly newsletter (started April 12) that
contains articles and reports from the growers and university personnel
at the New Agriculture Network: http://www.new-ag.msu.edu
<http://www.new-ag.msu.edu/>   Twice a month through conference phone
calls, nine organic growers share crop updates and advice with Extension
personnel to generate information at the web site. Growers and
university specialists write articles about a variety of practices and
new findings useful for organic growers or those wishing to transition
to organics. The result is an on-line newsletter with a library of
resources that can be read on the Internet, searched, or printed and
distributed.


If you have any questions, suggestions for articles or would like to
participate in the toll-free, bi-weekly conference call please contact
