SUMMARY:Profitable Pastures Webinar Series (Virtual) - Growing grass\, supporting livestock: Nitrogen in pasture systems
DESCRIPTION:Profitable Pastures Webinar Series – March 3rd at 7:30pm EST \nGrowing grass\, supporting livestock: Nitrogen in pasture systems with Caroline Reisiger \nPerennial cool-season pastures are the backbone of beef production in Ontario\, yet nitrogen (N) application remains an overlooked strategy in pasture research. This talk explores how strategic N fertilization can increase pasture productivity\, stocking rates\, and calf output in rotationally grazed systems. Field-scale research from a 64-acre cow-calf pasture in Elora\, Ontario demonstrates that increasing rates of polymer-coated urea boosted forage yield primarily through enhanced grass growth\, supporting higher stocking density and greater beef production per acre. Environmental trade-offs are also examined\, highlighting how improved N management may help producers balance productivity and sustainability. \nMore info at https://onforagenetwork.ca/ontario-forage-council/profitable-pastures/. \nProfitable pastures \n*This event is recognized as OSCIA OFCAF KSE under BMP category Nitrogen Management

SUMMARY:Connecting Forage Quality and Animal Health (Virtual)
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 Advisors. 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\, February 25 with Kristen\, a ruminant nutritionist and managing partner of Blue Rock Animal Nutrition (Alberta)\, to examine how forage nutritive value shifts under rotational grazing management and directly influences rumen function and animal performance. While highlighting practical approaches for integrating forage analysis\, Kristen also emphasizes aligning pasture quality to class-specific nutrient requirements and much more! \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 Crop Management. This webinar is an OSCIA-recognized Knowledge Sharing Event (KSE) for applicants with On-Farm Climate Action Fund (OFCAF) projects in the Rotational Grazing Systems category (only available for the live webinar). \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:An Introduction to Rotational Grazing and Pasture Crop Production
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\, February 11 with Christine O’Reilly for an introductory talk on rotational grazing and pasture crop production. Pasture management involves managing crop production\, animal behaviour\, and animal nutrition all at the same time. Forage quality is the interaction between crop production and animal nutrition. This presentation discusses how rotational grazing and pasture crop production work together to create a sustainable\, productive forage system—one that supports animal health\, improves soil function\, and strengthens whole‑farm resilience. \nThis event is free to attend. CEUs 1.0 Crop 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 Rotational Grazing category (only available for the live webinar). \nREGISTER HERE
