Join us on Wednesday, May 21 for the "Facing the Future: Tornado Alley Shifts and Their Impact on Illinois Farming" webinar. Growing in Illinois has always been difficult, but it's getting even harder. Meteorologist David Yeomans dives into how tornado alley is shifting into our area, damaging thunderstorm wind events are happening more often, and temperatures are becoming more variable. He also analyzes new soil moisture projections for the rest of the season. Presented by CBS Chicago Meteorologist David Yeomans.

As crops continue to grow this season, so do the risks of pest and disease pressures. Join Kelly Estes, entomologist at the University of Illinois and state survey coordinator with the Illinois Cooperative Agricultural Pest Survey Program, and Dr. Ahmad Fakhoury, professor of plant pathology at Southern Illinois University, as they share data from the field to help you stay ahead of insects and disease. Learn what pests and pathogens to watch for and bring your questions for the discussion.
