Specialty Forestry Crops The study of harvestable woody and other forestry crops such as corkscrew willow and colored dogwoods for use in the floral industry is ongoing at Kimmel Orchard. Under the direction of the Kimmel Education and Research Center (KERC), on-farm demonstration sites throughout southeastern Nebraska are currently participating in this Specialty Forestry Crop research. Such research has important implications for the future of agricultural producers in the region. The development of these crops answers a growing consumer need while at the same providing vital new opportunities for agricultural producers who face growing volatility in the commodity markets. |
