SUMMARY:Considering Renting your Farmland? Collaboration on Farmland Rental Agreements for Farmers and Landowners
DESCRIPTION:Bruce Kelly\, Program Consultant\, Farm & Food Care Ontario will lead this course on Farmland Rental Agreements\, offering farmers and landowners a unique opportunity to learn how to work together and effectively develop a written agreement that works well for both parties over time. Effective communication is the cornerstone of a successful rental agreement. It’s not just about the financial aspect but also about creating a win-win situation. Farmers need to see the benefits of good management in the long term\, and landowners need reassurance about managing their land. As more of Ontario’s farming is done on rented land\, the significance of farmer-landowner relationships is increasing. A solution is a simple yet effective written lease. The lease would outline both parties’ responsibilities and helps set collaborative goals\, define the financial terms\, and clarify the land management. It gives the farmer the security to make suitable land management investments with a longer-term perspective.  And what about the cost? Will the rent be a flat rate? When will it be paid? Will the rate change over time? Will the rental amount be based on some formula that considers the value of the crop produced? And what about capital improvements? Who pays for a new culvert\, a load of gravel or fencing repairs?  The workshop will cover topics such as the benefits of written leases\, effective communication strategies\, capital investments and basic rental formulas.  **Please note that land rental rates will not be discussed.** Webinar fee is $12.00. Please RSVP to info@greyagservices.ca.

SUMMARY:Improving Grassland Bird Habitat on Farms
DESCRIPTION:Grassland bird species at risk\, such as bobolink\, eastern meadowlark\, and grasshopper sparrow\, rely on agricultural grasslands in Ontario for nesting. These species nest directly on the ground and need cover from vegetation to protect nests and young. Bird Ecology and Conservation Ontario\, a small non-profit organization\, collaborates with farmers and landowners to study nesting grassland birds in agricultural landscapes. Join us and a panel of farmers and grassland bird stewards for a roundtable discussion about how you can manage vegetation to attract grassland birds and improve nesting habitat on your property. Speakers will share their experience with creating and maintaining hayfields and pastures suitable for grassland bird nesting. The discussion will focus on practical information and strategies to establish and maintain tall dense vegetation for nesting bobolink\, for example through overseeding\, grazing\, and soil amendments. Participants will also be encouraged to share their experiences with creating and managing nesting habitat for grassland birds. Course fee is $20.00. Please RSVP to info@greyagservices.ca.
