SUMMARY:Webinar: Optimizing Nitrogen Management
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the 2025 Innovation Exchange: Living Lab–ON Research Forum  — a four-part virtual series exploring climate-friendly solutions co-developed by farmers and researchers. \nAcross four Wednesday sessions this fall (Nov 26\, Dec 3\, Dec 10\, Dec 17)\, we’ll dig into practical innovations and the latest research on: \nDec. 10th  – 2:30pm \n\nOptimizing Nitrogen Management \n\nOptimizing your nitrogen applications is a complex management decision. Apply too much and lose returns on your investment or increase the loss of nitrogen as nitrous oxide (a potent greenhouse gas). Join Living Lab – Ontario researchers\, Craig Drury (AAFC) studying nitrification and urease inhibitors to understand how these products can benefit the environment and your crops. We will also hear from Researcher\, Aaron Delaporte (AAFC) on how these practices can improve your ROI and a Living Lab farmer-cooperator exploring ways to optimize nitrogen management using plant-available nitrogen from cover crops. Hear how their first set of trials has gone\, and how they are adapting their management strategies on their farm going forward.. \n\nREGISTER HERE \nOptimizing Nitrogen Management  is an OSCIA-recognized Knowledge Sharing Event (KSE) for farmers with On-Farm Climate Action Fund (OFCAF) projects in the Nitrogen Management category.
