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.

How long does it take for cover crops to become profitable? Join us for next week's Digital Café where Dr. Rob Myers of University of Missouri will share insights on how different management scenarios can impact the time it takes for cover crops to provide a positive economic return, based on data from the SARE/CTIC national cover crop survey.

For this webinar, we’ll revisit the ability of soil to supply the nutrients plants need to reach their genetic potential. Dr. James White, Rutgers University, will join Dr. Kris Nichols, MyLand Research Director and Kiss the Ground co-star, to discuss the role plants play in producing the exudates needed to meet growth needs.

FPAC agencies implement programs designed to mitigate the significant risks of farming through crop insurance, conservation programs, farm safety net programs, lending, education, and disaster programs. Learn about different opportunities for urban producers at FPAC’s agencies: Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), Farm Service Agency (FSA), Risk Management Agency (RMA).

Join us as we discuss the history of organic farming in parallel to the history of soil conservation with a focus on soil health and soil organic matter, and how organic farming connects with the four NRCS principles of soil health.
