SUMMARY:Managing Nitrogen with Gerard Grubb
DESCRIPTION:Managing Nitrogen with Gerard Grubb\nJune 18 @ 9:30 am – 12:00 pm \nGerard Grubb farms with a low-till approach on a corn-soybean-wheat rotation near Walkerton. On June 18\, he’s opening his farm to walk through what he’s learning about nitrogen management — including results from his 2025 strip trials and what he has planned for 2026. \nWhat’s on the agenda: \n\nAdaptive Nitrogen Trials. OSN\, EFAO\, and FCS have partnered with farmers to run replicated strip trials on working farms. Gerard shares what his 2025 trial showed about nitrogen rate\, yield\, and profitability in corn following a cover crop — and how he’s taking it further in 2026.\nUpside Robotics — in the field. Upside is testing autonomous robots designed to increase the number of nitrogen splits\, potentially improving nitrogen efficiency and cutting labour. Come see them running.\nIn-field discussions and demonstrations (and coffee).\n\nMeet at Gerard’s shop — we’ll carpool to the field together. \nFree to attend. Open to all. For more information and to register CLICK HERE \nOrganized by Ontario Soil Network in partnership with EFAO\, FCS\, and Upside Robotics. \n*This event is recognized as OSCIA OFCAF KSE under BMP category Nitrogen Management.

SUMMARY:Georgian Central SCIA Compaction Day
DESCRIPTION:Please save the date for the Georgian Central SCIA Compaction Day\, Thursday July 16th\, 2026\, at Tupling Farms in Redickville ON. \nThe day will see a wide variety of soil compaction demonstrations – everything from grain buggys\, to combines and potato harvesters\, to forage equipment! Implements are driven over underground pressure sensors which send real-time data to a giant presentation screen at the field’s edge. Commentators keep the day rolling: interpreting data\, relaying equipment metrics and sparking discussion with the audience. \nOn top of the compaction demos\, the event will also highlight hands on education stations on cover crops\, manure management and tire ballasting. Producers can browse a tradeshow and check out additional equipment on display all day long too! \nTickets are $30.00 for OSCIA members and $50.00 for non-members\, with a catered lunch included. Not an OSCIA member yet\, but would like to become one? Purchase your membership before your tickets here! \nEmail georgiancentralscia@ontariosoilcrop.org for more event information or go to: www.greyagservices.ca/compaction-event \n*This event is recognized as OSCIA OFCAF KSE under BMP category Nitrogen Management and Cover Cropping
