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.

SUMMARY:Nitrogen Management and Challenges in Corn
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\, October 29 with Dr. Dan Quinn for an interactive presentation “Nitrogen Management and Challenges in Corn”. In this webinar\, Dr. Dan Quinn dives deep into the complexities of nitrogen management in corn systems\, highlighting why this nutrient remains a stubborn challenge despite decades of research and innovation. Nitrogen isn’t going anywhere–literally or figuratively. Its management remains a moving target due to environmental variability\, evolving crop genetics\, and technological limitations. The solution? Control what you can: minimize losses\, optimize timing\, and tailor strategies to your field’s unique conditions. \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.
