Publications
The Forage Leader
In 2008 The Forage Leader (AFGC's newsletter) will be published both in print and electronically. As a result, all 2,400+ members of the association will receive the publication in the mail and have online access as well (available in the AFGC Library in the Members Only section). The newsletter will be published four times: Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter. The Forage Leader keeps AFGC members informed and provides them with research and articles of interest. Current and past issues are available in the Members Only section (must login to view) in the AFGC Library. For a sample of The Forage Leader, please click here.
