The Western Region Certified Crop Advisers Board of Directors invite you to join us for a day of Continuing Education followed by a reception and dinner, with a program honoring Jerome Pier's retirement.

Past WRCCA Board Member Jerome Pier has been a prominent figure in the formation of what our program has grown to become. As an author and editor of the Western Fertilizer Handbook, Jerome's knowledge in the field of agronomy is paramount to the success of our industry. Join us as we honor his retirement and exemplary body of work in agronomy and as a CCA.
