Florida NAMA at Florida Ag Expo

Florida NAMA Members attended the Florida Ag Expo on November 5th in Balm, FL.  Sixteen students and faculty helped promote Florida NAMA to exhibitors and growers attending the day-long show.  Both Student and Professional members had the opportunity to tour the research facility, attend educational sessions and gather together over lunch.  University of Florida NAMA students presented an afternoon session on “Getting the Most out of Social Media.”  Growers in the audience had several questions and appreciated the education from students.
