SUMMARY:Grey Bruce Farmers' Week - Beef Day (In Person and Livestreaming)
DESCRIPTION:Grey Bruce Farmers’ Week (GBFW) has been a main stay for the agricultural industry in Grey County since 1966. The featured commodities have changed as our agricultural focus has evolved\, but the mandate to educate farmers and agribusiness has remained firm. #GBFW24 includes several KSEs\, including:  \nAdaptive Multi-Paddock Grazing Affects Both the Quantity and Quality of Soil Carbon in Ontario Pastures \nJanuary 3\, 2024 at 9:50 a.m. \nDr. Kim Schneider\, Associate Professor\, University of Guelph \nRotational grazing is often touted for its ability to increase carbon sequestration on pastures\, however\, little Ontario data is available to support this claim. This presentation will outline the scientific results obtained from an Ontario grazing management study obtained using data from five ‘across the fence comparisons’ of beef farms managed according to adaptive multi-paddock grazing principles or continuously grazed. Results found changes in soil organic carbon quantity and quality. Scientific reasoning explaining the results will be presented. \nNote: GBFW sessions that qualify as KSEs must be attended in person or watched via the livestream. Watching the recorded or on-demand sessions do not qualify. \nFor more information\, including the full agenda\, or to register\, visit Agriculture | Grey Bruce Farmers’ Week | Elmwood (greybrucefarmersweek.ca)

SUMMARY:Pastures from the Plant and Livestock Perspective (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Join the Ecological Farmers Association of Ontario for the first of a two-part series with Sarah Flack\, an author\, consultant\, and speaker who specializes in grass-based livestock farming systems. \nHow do perennial pasture plants grow both above and below ground\, and how do our grazing management decisions create more productive pastures with more high-quality forages.  This session will look at the practical application of basic guidelines of good grazing management and pasture ecosystem monitoring\, based on plant physiology and soil health.  We also need to understand the nutritional and behavioral needs of cows\, sheep\, and goats.  So this session will also delve into how to design grazing systems which make it easier to maximize pasture intake by the herd or flock\, while also improving plant and soil health. \nThere will be time for a break\, as well as to ask your grazing questions directly to Sarah during this webinar. \nFor more information or to register\, visit: Session One: Pastures from the Plant and Livestock Perspective – EFAO \n
