| JANUARY 13, 2012 -- The University of Rhode Island Cooperative Extension is conducting a study to identify available equipment, desired but unavailable equipment, and custom operators serving RI, MA, and CT.
They are asking anyone who influences the equipment decisions on his or her farm to fill out a short on-line survey at www.surveymonkey.com/s/farmequipment. If you are not a farmer but you provide custom operator services, please fill out the survey. If you are a farmer AND you provide custom operator services, please fill out the survey. If you are neither a farmer nor a custom operator but you KNOW a custom operator, please fill out the survey. If you would prefer a paper version, please contact Becca Buckler at 401-934-0842 or becca.riacd@gmail.com.
This is a much-anticipated project, jointly funded by a USDA Beginning Farmer Grant (awarded to the RI Association of Conservation Districts and URI) and the RI Ag Partnership (through the generosity of the vanBuren Charitable Foundation). Your input will make this a success. Thanks for participating!
Questions about the study or survey can be directed to Kristen M. Castrataro, URI Cooperative Extension, 401-874-2967 or kcas@uri.edu. |
