ANNAPOLIS, MD (April 19, 2023)- <\/b>The Maryland Department of Agriculture, in partnership with the\u00a0 Maryland Department of Health and Maryland Department of Natural Resources, will host a Deer Summit on Thursday, May 11, 2023 at the Maryland Department of Agriculture, 50 Harry S. Truman Parkway, Annapolis, MD 21401.\u00a0 The summit will run from 10 am to 2 pm, with a light lunch sponsored by Horizon Farm Credit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The State\u2019s overpopulation of deer continues to have a major impact on rural Marylanders, whether through crop damage, Lyme disease or vehicle strikes.\u00a0 Stakeholders and experts will provide insight and solutions to this growing problem.\u00a0 The event is free and open to the public, however, registration is required.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Presentations and panel discussions will be led by MDH, DNR, Maryland Farm Bureau, Farmers & Hunters Feeding the Hungry, the University of Maryland, among others.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAs I have traveled throughout the State during my time as Secretary, it has become abundantly clear that deer have become a threat to Maryland agriculture and the state\u2019s economy,\u201d said MDA Secretary Kevin Atticks.\u00a0 \u201cThis is an opportunity to discuss issues, and work toward meaningful solutions.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
