SUMMARY:Nitrogen in Practice: Where Research Meets the Field
DESCRIPTION:Do you have persistent questions about nitrogen and nitrogen management? Curious about what researchers are working on at the University of Guelph? Want to contribute your insights and perspectives to contribute to research priorities in Ontario? This is your opportunity to network and connect with researchers in a small group which allows for productive conversations\, new connections\, and novel ideas. \nThe Ontario Soil Network and Soils at Guelph are excited to invite you to join us for an interactive morning of farmer-researcher networking situated around the topic of nitrogen. This isn’t a sit-down seminar\, it’s: On-the ground trials of world-class nitrogen trials. Farmer-led insights and open Q&A. Real-time networking between farmers and researchers. \nCoffee\, conversation\, and practical takeaways. Strong relationships between farmers and researchers ensure that research results in practical applications that address on-farm challenges. This event is designed to spark collaboration and new ideas by connecting the practical insights of farmers with the technical expertise of researchers. Bring your questions\, share your perspectives\, and help build continuous collaborations between farmers and researchers. \nWhen? Monday\, July 14 @ 8:30 AM – 12:00 pm \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhere? 7452 Side Rd 10\, Centre Wellington\, ON \nREGISTER HERE \nNitrogen in Practice: Where Research Meets the Field is an OSCIA-recognized Knowledge Sharing Event (KSE) for farmers with On-Farm Climate Action Fund (OFCAF) projects in the Nitrogen Management category. \n

SUMMARY:Exploring Nitrogen Strategies On-Farm with Norm Lamothe
DESCRIPTION:The Ontario Soil Network (OSN) and Ecological Farmers Association of Ontario (EFAO) are excited to collaborate on an event hosted by Norm Lamothe at Woodleigh Farms to showcase various Nitrogen Management Trials he is working on. Adaptive Nitrogen Trials (ANT): A collaborative initiative between the OSN\, EFAO\, and Farmers for Climate Solutions (FCS) which supports farmers in trialing the profitability of various N application rates in corn following a cover crop. Plant Available Nitrogen (PAN): A continuing trial with the EFAO looking at how cover crops contribute to plant available nitrogen in the following growing season. Living Lab Ontario (LL – ON): is a five-year innovation project that brings together farmers\, organizations\, researchers\, and other experts to co-develop\, test\, and evaluate beneficial management practices (BMPs) that address climate change challenges in livestock and cropping systems. This event is funded in part by Farmers for Climate Solutions FaRM Program \nWhen? Monday July 7 @ 10:00 am – 12:00 pm \nWhere? 528 Sharpe Line Cavan\, ON L0A 1C0 \nREGISTER FOR THE EVENT \nExploring Nitrogen Strategies On-Farm with Norm Lamothe is an OSCIA-recognized Knowledge Sharing Event (KSE) for farmers with On-Farm Climate Action Fund (OFCAF) projects in the Nitrogen Management category.

SUMMARY:Hog Manure & Mineralizing Nitrogen for Corn with Ron Martin
DESCRIPTION:Take a field tour with Ron Martin to look at his corn after winter wheat with cover crops (oat peas crimson clover and tillage radish) which was planted after wheat and worked down before winter. Ron also has plots with varying levels of applied hog manure (5000gpa hog manure and 3000gpa hog manure) and side dress 24-0-0 nitrogen applied at 6 leaves which is compared against a zero-fertility plot to measure difference between cover crop fertility as opposed to applied fertility. \nFor more information: \nHog Manure and Mineralizing Nitrogen for Corn with Ron Martin – Ontario Soil Network \nHog Manure & Mineralizing Nitrogen for Corn with Ron Martin 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 categories.
