SUMMARY:Webinar: Sowing solutions: Why these cover cropping BMPs? / Solutions d’ensemencement Pourquoi avoir choisi ces PGB s’appliquant aux cultures de couverture?
DESCRIPTION:Join Farmers for Climate Solutions for a 60-minute free webinar where we will dive into the science and benefits of cover cropping. \n\n\n\nHow cover crops sequester carbon (and benefit your farm in other ways too) \nCover crops are helping farms improve soil health\, manage nutrients\, and build resilience\, but what processes are driving these changes in the field? In this webinar\, farmers and researchers will walk through the processes by which cover crops sequester carbon\, what we know about their impact on nitrous oxide emissions\, and how species selection and management decisions shape these outcomes. We’ll also explore the broader on-farm benefits that are motivating adoption across Canada. \n— \nVoici comment les cultures de couverture séquestrent le carbone (et procurent d’autres avantages à votre ferme) \nLes cultures de couverture contribuent à améliorer la santé des sols\, à gérer les nutriments et à renforcer la résilience. Or\, quels sont les processus à l’origine de ces changements dans les champs ? Lors de ce webinaire\, des agriculteur·rice·s et des chercheur·se·s décriront les processus par lesquels les cultures de couverture séquestrent le carbone\, les effets de ces processus sur les émissions d’oxyde nitreux\, ainsi que la manière dont les choix en matière d’espèces végétales et de méthodes de gestion influencent les résultats de ces processus. Ils présenteront également les avantages plus généraux des cultures de couverture pour les fermes\, ces avantages favorisant leur adoption à travers le Canada.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen?

SUMMARY:Guelph Organic Conference: Organic vs Inorganic Nitrogen: What every organic farmer needs to know
DESCRIPTION:The way in which plants detect\, take up and utilise different forms of nitrogen is of fundamental importance to all farmers but the specific benefits of organic vs inorganic nitrogen sources is of particular importance to organic farmers. Organic forms of nitrogen are less leaky and more stable in the soil but when taken up by the plant\, organic forms are more metabolically efficient than inorganic forms – in other words – plants require less energy to process and make use of organic forms of nitrogen. This has major implications for biomass production (yield)\, nitrogen demand and nitrogen use efficiency\, presenting a critical opportunity for organic farmers to manage nitrogen in a more targeted and efficient way. Is nitrogen really such a limitation in organic systems when organic forms are in dominant supply to the plant? Does the natural process of atmospheric N-fixation supply organic or inorganic N to the plant? Does a pound of N simply equal a pound of N? There is much more to the nitrogen story and this presentation will answer these important questions and take a deep dive into all things nitrogen nutrition.\n \n  \nJoel Williams is an independent plant and soil health educator and consultant who has worked extensively in Australia\, Europe and Canada where he is currently based. He has a keen interest in soil health\, plant nutrition and plant and soil microbiomes and how these may support the development of sustainable production systems. Joel has a Bachelor of Agricultural Science specialising in plant and soil dynamics and an MSc in Food Policy where he explored motivations and barriers to the adoption of intercropping. Joel has a passion for teaching and sharing a combination of scientific and practical information and has lectured to farming audiences internationally. \nRegister for the Session \nGuelph Organic Conference: Organic vs Inorganic Nitrogen: What every organic farmer needs to know is an OSCIA-recognized Knowledge Sharing Event (KSE) for farmers with On-Farm Climate Action Fund (OFCAF) projects in the Nitrogen Management category.

SUMMARY:Understanding Urease and Nitrification Inhibitors
DESCRIPTION:The Ontario Certified Crop Advisor Association (CCA) and Ontario Soil and Crop Improvement Association (OSCIA) have partnered to deliver training and educational resources to Ontario agrologists. With a focus on cover crops\, nitrogen management\, and rotational grazing\, these sessions will support the objectives of the On-Farm Climate Action Fund. Check out the full webinar series schedule here. \nJoin us on Wednesday\, January 28 with Dr. John Lauzon to explore how urease and nitrification inhibitors can reduce nitrogen losses in agricultural systems and improve nitrogen use efficiency. Nitrogen is essential for crop growth\, yet a significant portion of applied fertilizer is often lost through ammonia volatilization\, nitrification\, denitrification\, and leaching. These losses reduce crop uptake\, increase production costs\, and contribute to environmental impacts such as nitrous oxide emissions and water contamination. \nFunding for this project has been provided by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada through the Agricultural Climate Solutions (ACS) – On-Farm Climate Action Fund (OFCAF). \nThis event is free to attend. CEUs 1.0 Nutrient Management available (Pending Approval). This webinar is an OSCIA-recognized Knowledge Sharing Event (KSE) for applicants with On-Farm Climate Action Fund (OFCAF) projects in the Nitrogen Management category (only available for the live webinar). \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Guelph Organic Conference: Building Soil Health in Organic Grain Production using Ecological Systems Strategies
DESCRIPTION:This full day intensive with Dr. Erin Silva\, Professor of Organic and Sustainable Cropping Systems at the University of Wisconsin Madison\, will explore practical\, research based strategies for building soil health in organic field crop systems. Drawing on long term trials with cover crops\, organic no till and reduced tillage\, Dr. Silva will share how farmers can use crop rotations and cover crops to regenerate their soils while keeping weeds in check. \nThe session will cover systems-based approaches to weed management that integrate cover crop selection\, timing and termination with mechanical tools such as  roller crimpers. Participants will learn how practices like planting soybeans or other cash crops into rolled cereal rye can provide season long weed suppression and protect soil health\, as well as the trade offs and management details that make these systems succeed on farm.  By the end of the day\, farmers will be better equipped build soil health using cover crops and Integrate weed management into whole farm rotation planning \n  \nDr. Erin Silva is an Associate Professor and State Extension Specialist in Organic and Sustainable Cropping Systems at UW-Madison. She has built an internationally recognized program focused on improving organic production\, soil health\, and cover crop based systems. Her work supports the profitability and sustainability of organic farmers. \nRegister for the Session \nGuelph Organic Conference: Building Soil Health in Organic Grain Production using Ecological Systems Strategies is an OSCIA-recognized Knowledge Sharing Event (KSE) for farmers with On-Farm Climate Action Fund (OFCAF) projects in the Cover Cropping and Nitrogen Management category.
