Prioritizing Grower Concerns
Karen Jetter, Research Economist with UC Agricultural Issues Center is interested in getting grower input into the research areas that you would like the University of California to prioritize to better serve California growers. A series of focus group meetings have been organized to discuss your challenges and concerns, how you are addressing and how the University can help. The focus group meetings will be about 8-12 people each and you will need to register. To register please click on the link in the below schedule for the session that you are interested in attending. The results of the focus group meetings will be summarized and distributed. Once the results of the focus group meetings are summarized we will be reaching out on ways to collaboratively address them.
If you have questions, you can contact Karen at jetter@ucanr.edu.
