SUMMARY:Creativity in Cover Crops (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Thursday March 19 @ 6:30 pm – 7:45 pm     Venue: Online\n\nMany farmers are working to diversify their crop rotations for the health of their soil. If you’re aiming to stack benefits and hopefully provide more ecological and economic gain for your farm\, it may require some innovation. In this session you’ll hear from farmers and researchers about unique aspects of their work that incorporate cover crops using a variety of techniques. \nJulianna Tindall is a Master’s student at the University of Guelph working under Dr. Kim Schneider in the Forage and Service Crops Lab. \nTom Barrie of Terwidlen Farms in Bowmanville is a long-time soil health champion\, using no-till methods long before they were mainstream\, and growing clover for forage and seed for 50+ years. \nJess Pfisterer focusses on forage seed\, field crops and land-based partnerships at Pfisterer Ag in Kenilworth. \nJoin to learn more about creative ways to bring cover crops into your operation. For more information and to register\, CLICK HERE. \n*This event is recognized as OSCIA OFCAF KSE under BMP category Cover Cropping

SUMMARY:Improving Nitrogen Use Efficiency in Canola (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\, March 11 for a conversation with Dr. Mario Tenuta as he shares the latest research on helping farmers optimize fertilizer nitrogen use\, reduce nitrous oxide (N₂O) emissions\, and enhance soil health and crop productivity in canola. A key piece of this is conducting farm-based research\, with particular attention to the outreach of findings to farmers\, industry\, and policymakers\, all to the goal of positioning Canada on a path towards net-zero food production. \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 Nitrogen Management category (only available for the live webinar). \nREGISTER HERE

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
