Maximizing Your Nitrogen Fertilizer Dollar is a 4-part webinar series where participants can join academic, extension and grower experts to discuss maximizing N-use efficiency using available tools, BMPs, and new technology. In part three of the series, join Dr. Craig Drury (AAFC Harrow), Colin Elgie (OMAFRA), and Caleb Niemeyer (Woodrill Farms) as they discuss N-use efficiency on field crop systems.
Maximizing Your Nitrogen Fertilizer Dollar is a 4-part webinar series where participants can join academic, extension and grower experts to discuss maximizing N-use efficiency using available tools, BMPs, and new technology. This video is the 2nd in the series with a focus on maximizing nitrogen use efficiency and research in potatoes, sweet corn and processing tomatoes with speakers Dr. Mario Tenuta (University of Manitoba), Elaine Roddy (OMAFRA), and Joe Tomecek (Tomecek Agronomy Services).
Join us for this webinar during which soil life in organic agriculture and the role of soil organisms, such as macro-and micro-fauna, including earthworms, fungi, protozoa, and bacteria will be discussed. This webinar will cover foundational knowledge on how soil organisms/life contribute to overall soil health in organic agricultural systems. The webinar will highlight the importance of macro and micro organisms in soil in addition to the functions of each, as well as guidelines for optimizing practices and outcomes.
This webinar discusses how to establish effective pollinator habitats on farmland, especially when enhancing organic operations. The webinar goes into considerable depth on habitat characteristics, pollinator species in the midwest, and how local conservationists can work with farmers to install these habitats.
Join Patrick Schultz and Aaron Peter, TTCP engineers, as they cover planning and design criteria for Side Water Inlets (SWI’s). SWI’s are an option within the 410 grade stabilization structure practice. Participants will learn what resource concerns are addressed by this practice, data needing to be collected to design the practice, and the design process using an example project.
Maximizing Your Nitrogen Fertilizer Dollar is a 4-part webinar series where participants can join academic, extension and grower experts to discuss maximizing N-use efficiency using available tools, BMPs, and new technology. In part one of the series, join Dr. Claudia Wagner-Riddle (University of Guelph) and Dr. Dave Burton (Dalhousie University) for an overview of the science of N, the N cycle, and emissions.
Following Dr. White’s discussion, we’re joined by Drs. Rick and Liz Haney, along with Lance Gunderson, founder of Regen Ag Lab. Over the one-hour webinar, the trio will visit with Dr. Kris Nichols to share the importance of knowing and understanding the activity and availability of the biology in agricultural soils.
The Strategic Farming webinar series will provide up to date, research based information to help you optimize your crop management strategies for 2023. Pull up a chair and join in or bring the conversation with you as you go about your day. These online sessions will be very informal and open to all interested. Each session will start with a brief presentation by the discussion leaders for the day, followed by discussion framed around farmer/participant questions on the topic. Nitrogen is a dynamic nutrient.
