The 24th edition of the Illinois Agronomy Handbook for research-based guidance on crop production is now available, completely revised and updated with new information and guidelines as well as color photos and illustrations.

“Many sections and even whole chapters from the previous version were essentially scrapped and replaced by new versions,” says Emerson Nafziger, University of Illinois crop sciences professor.

The handbook will not be available free on the Web so that some of the costs of producing and printing the publication can be recovered.

To order, call 800-345-6087 or visit the Publication Plus Web site. The price is $35.
