Southwest Crop Diagnostic Days
Please join us for the 2026 Southwest Crop Diagnostic Days July 7th and 8th, 2026 at the University of Guelph Ridgetown Campus. Our success the past 33 years would not be possible without the great support from participants, sponsors, speakers and all the volunteers involved! The 2026 Southwest Crop Diagnostic Days will certainly be an event you will not want to miss!
The 2026 Southwest Crop Diagnostic Days will consist of eight 30-minute sessions repeated each day. Each session will consist of a general field crop agronomic theme with various topics which are current and relevant to farmers, crop consultants, retailers – basically anyone involved in agriculture!
Space is limited. We will not be taking door registrations so PRE-REGISTER BY JUNE 26, 2026, to secure your spot! Please note ALL ACTIVITIES ARE OUTDOORS, so come prepared and enjoy.
Registration begins at 8:15 a.m. The program will start at 9:00 a.m. sharp and conclude at 3:00 p.m. Refreshments and a complimentary lunch will be provided. All parts of the program will be conducted at the University of Guelph Ridgetown Campus, Ridgetown, Ontario.
CONTINUING EDUCATION UNITS (CEU)
Historically, the Southwest Crop Diagnostic Days have provided some of the best opportunities for Certified Crop Advisors (CCA) to acquire a broad range of Continuing Education Units (CEU). An application has been made to offer participants 4 CEU credits. Complete details will be included in the reference package handed out on the day of the event.
