SUMMARY:March Manure Mondays
DESCRIPTION:March Manure Mondays 2025 Poster\n\n\n\nMARCH MANURE MONDAYS 2025 from 2pm-3pm (ET) \nMarch 10th – Fine-tuning Manure Nutrient Availability\nManure application can reduce fertilizer needs\, improve soil health and increase yields. Kirsten Workman and Quirine Ketterings (Cornell\, NY) will provide an overview of manure research that helped quantify the nitrogen replacement value from manure to determine MERN (most economic rate of N) as well as the impacts to microbial biomass for sites with and without manure. \nMarch 17th – In-crop application using 360 Rain to improve 4R practices\nHandling the dilute liquids that remain after solids separation is expensive and time consuming. Scott Shearer (Ohio State U) will discuss the opportunities of new technology like 360 Rain for in-crop application of manure liquids for improved 4R nutrient management\, water management yields in a value-enhanced circular economy. \nMarch 31st Application strategies to maximize N and reduce GHG losses in the field.\nNitrogen inhibitors help reduce N loss and nitrous oxide emissions for fertilizer\, but what about manure? Heather Darby (U of Vermont) and Debbie Aller will evaluate research results that compare application timing\, injection vs surface application\, use of biochar and other technologies that can reduce emissions. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhere? Online through Zoom \n  \n Visit the link to register! \n  \nMarch Manure Monday sessions for March 10\, 17 and 31st  is an OSCIA-recognized Knowledge Sharing Event (KSE) for farmers with On-Farm Climate Action Fund (OFCAF) projects in the Nitrogen Management category.  \n

SUMMARY:Understanding Your Soil Test: Part 1
DESCRIPTION:Taking soil tests both for nutrients and biology are important management techniques so that ecological farmers can increase yields\, improve crop quality\, reduce weed problems and improve soil health. Join Ken Laing for this free Member Month webinar to learn how to take a soil sample\, where to send it and help you understand the results when you get them back. You will leave with an understanding of what your nutrient and biological goals should be. \nJoin the second webinar where Ken will discuss what amendments and/or cover crops you might use to correct deficiencies you find. Learn more and register for Part 2 on March 25. \nBoth webinars will be relevant to growers of all sizes. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKen Laing of Orchard Hill Farm has farmed with his wife Martha near St.Thomas since 1979 when he graduated from the University of Guelph with a B.Sc. in Agriculture. From 1979 until 1996 they produced pick-your-own fruit\, and they transitioned to organic in 1989. From 1997 until 2017 they operated a CSA for up to 250 members. Pasture has been a part of their farm rotation for 44 years in terms of draft horses and more recently since 2015 also with cattle and custom grazing.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen? Tuesday\, March 18\, 1:00 pm to 2:30 pm \nWhere? Online via Zoom \n Visit the link to reserve your spot! \n  \nUnderstanding Your Soil Test: Part 1 is an OSCIA-recognized Knowledge Sharing Event (KSE) for farmers with On-Farm Climate Action Fund (OFCAF) projects in the Nitrogen Management category. \n
