The inaugural Alfalfa/Forage D.C. Fly-In, February 14-17 2011, was a great success. NAFA board members and participants representing 29 different states met with nearly 100 congressional offices on behalf of the alfalfa/forage industry. The Fly-In hosted two Alfalfa Research Briefings and an "Alfalfa on the Hill" reception, which fostered an opportunity to educate and network with Members/Staffers.
