Done in partnership with UW-Extension and UW-Madison’s College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, this educational event will be held on March 6, 2012 at the Comfort Inn and Suites in DeForest, Wisconsin from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

The event will feature guest speakers, including a producer panel to help answer producer questions. In addition to presentations, an invitation has been extended to all WLIC members, and companies directly related to RFID technology to have a tabletop at this event. Participating members and companies that have a tabletop will be available all day to also answer any questions that producers may have.

Topics such as: An Introduction to Electronic Identification; On-Farm use of Electronic Identification, What Do You Need to Know; Working With Your Veterinarian Using Electronic ID and Your Record Management System; and finally, “What Do I Need to Know Before I Start Buying,” will all be covered at this event. This event will be open for the public to attend and free of charge for producers.

The number of tabletops is limited, therefore, reservations will be taken on a first come, first serve basis. To reserve your tabletop for WLIC’s Educational Event, email cwiese@wiid.org. For more information on this educational event, call 888-808-1910 or send information requests to info@wiid.org.
