The LSU AgCenter communications team won several awards at the Association of Communications Excellence (ACE) conference. Among them was a duck poster that AgCenter animator/producer Matt Faust created. For that, he won the Outstanding Professional Skill award. Faust put together this creative video to showcase the award at the 2024 conference. His expertise was highlighted not only in the quality of the poster, but in the many talents he used to shoot, edit, animate and produce this enthralling and humorous short film. On a sidenote, Faust also designed the conference's bigfoot logo (as seen in the video) which was emblazoned on event merchandise.

    How early should I start to prune my trees? I have two very young guys. Planted them on 6/1/24 from 1 gallon pots from the nursery. Trunks are about 1/2 thick at the base

    Thank you. I looked up the aphids on my milkweed and many sites did say that had to be washed off with soapy water or killed by dabbing alcohol on them. I wonder if these aphids are one of the types that ladybugs eat? I looked it up on a reliable site and ladybugs do eat these types of aphids.

    I do not believe that the photo they showed of the multi-colored corn came from these plants. They are not being honest. The plants look like Japonica corn, which has burgundy kernels on the cobs. The cobs looked like Glass Gem. They did not tell us what kind of corn they planted.

    I have a Peggy Martin that is climbing on an arch trellis. At the top it is sending up some shoots. We don’t know if we can cut them closer to the trellis or wait until it is not so hot. Do you get flowers for a long time or just in the spring.
