Here are some creative ways to entertain friends and loved ones during the warmest months of the year. While serving hamburgers and hotdogs are a safe go-to for summer parties, why not infuse some style by planning an elegant Frenchthemed soiree or chic garden party for your guests to enjoy? From décor to dress code to menu, a French soiree or garden party should have a luxurious feel. Be thoughtful when creating atmosphere by adding fresh flowers, linen napkins and colorful crockery. Tailor the menu to match the party’s appearance for an even more memorable experience. Kick off your party with finger food appetizers to greet your guests upon arrival. These starters should be light and summer-friendly with an elegant presentation. A delicious starter is sliced toasted baguettes topped with tuna and Boursin cheese and garnished with chives, capers and a sprinkle of pepper. A cold salad is a winning choice for this time of the year. A simple, yet classic French choice is Salade Niçoise. Simply combine tomatoes, tuna, hard-boiled eggs, Niçoise olives, and anchovies, and dress with a vinaigrette. Another festive option is oysters on the half shell. The recipe is surprisingly simple and affordable. Clean and shuck the oysters, then top with lemon juice and a cucumber mignonette sauce, for a cool treat that is sure to wow your guests. A refreshing meal would be a mesclun, avocado and sea scallop salad. The dish contains slices of avocado, chopped mesclun, onion and sprigs of mint leaves with lime juice, olive oil, salt and pepper. Delicately sear sea scallops and serve over the salad for a delicious, yet light meal. With the menu set, don’t forget about the wine. White and light red wines are best served during a summer soiree. Pair light seafood, seasonal vegetables and fruit dishes, with a Louis Jadot Chablis (SRP: $25.99), a traditional French white wine with refreshing acidity and a clean finish. It offers a bright taste with floral aromas, along with citrus and mineral flavors. This wine will pair with any of mentioned appetizers or lobster and crab BROOKINGS, S.D. - The Global Agricultural Imperative Report states that in 40 years, agriculture output will have to increase 100 percent. During the July 17, 2016 episode of SDSU Extension Contours, a panel of South Dakota experts look at the role precision agriculture will play in tackling this challenge. “What is the potential of precision agriculture in the future? The answers are very exciting and a little mind-numbing,” said Barry Dunn, President of South Dakota State University and former Dean of the College dishes for a delightful meal of Agriculture and Biologiexperience. cal Sciences. “The longterm goal for agriculture Frederic Barnier, techniis to increase quality and cal director of Maison productivity, while making Louis Jadot, one of the production more efficient most trusted wine houses in Burgundy, recommends a and sustainable.

Exciting Times for AgriBringing a French experience culture to your table will make you Dunn discusses the future the star host or hostess of of precision agriculture with the summer! Keith Alverson a sixth-gen- eration Chester farmer and SDSU Agronomy graduate; Shane Swedlund, Facility and Engineering Manager for Raven Industries Applied Technology Division; Dr. David Wright, Department Head of SDSU Plant Science Department and Nic Uilk, Instructor in the SDSU Agriculture Engineering Department. When it comes to precision agriculture today, Alverson says it makes for exciting times on his farm. “The amount of information that we have and the capabilities that we have at our fingertips and within our tractor cabs and equipment is pretty incredible,” Alverson said, sharing an example of how precision agriculture impacts field applications of nutrients and pesticides. “We are able to apply 4 to 12 ounces of product - about the size of a perfume bottle or can of Coke - across an acre of land (the size of a football field) ... to do this evenly and accurately is something that requires technology and precise management. This is the capabilities of the some of the equipment we have today,” Alverson said. Moving into the future, precision agriculture technology will become even more precise and touch more than equipment, explained Swedlund. “There is a lot of development going on in the sensor world which will allow for the monitoring of plant health, helping to determine what a plant’s needs are ...to help the plant be more efficient as well,” Swedlund said. As advancements in precision agriculture aid to increase yields-per-acre and maximize efficiencies, Wright explained that at the same time they bolster consumer relationships. “Everything we do in agriculture is about food production. Precision agriculture has helped us increase productivity and profitability in an ecosystem-friendly manner,” Wright said. “Anything we can do in agriculture to reduce the amount of inputs and to improve sustainability of our very valuable ecosystems, builds consumer confidence because our population of consumers today are very aware of where their food comes from. It’s an emotional issue with many, many people out there today.” Reinforcing this point, Wright pointed to the fact that by 2050, farmers, ranchers and the agriculture industry as a whole, will be responsible for feeding 9 million plus. “South Dakota plays a major, major role in that,” Wright said. To help South Dakota farmers meet this challenge, in 2016 South Dakota State University will add a Bachelor’s of Science in Precision Agriculture to its degree offerings. “We are training students on all aspects of precision agriculture. There are lots of students who are knowledgeable on agronomy, machinery or electronics or data management, but it is difficult to find a student who understands it all well - but in today’s precision agriculture world they have to ... because they are all intertwined,” Uilk said. niGrow USED EQUIPMENT Large Inventory at Great Prices!
