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. CEU credits are available. \nREGISTER HERE \nNitrogen Management and Challenges in Corn is an OSCIA-recognized Knowledge Sharing Event (KSE) for applicants with On-Farm Climate Action Fund (OFCAF) projects in the Nitrogen Management category.

SUMMARY:Rotational Grazing: Improving Soil Fertility for Nutrient-Dense Beef
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 15 with Randy Gamble for an interactive presentation “Rotational Grazing: Improving Soil Fertility for Nutrient-Dense Beef”. This presentation explores a grazing strategy that combines cover crops and nutrient reduction to enhance both pasture productivity and overall farm sustainability. While soil health is often emphasized in row crop systems\, it’s equally vital for grazed pastures–boosting forage quality and reducing reliance on fertilizers beyond just nitrogen. Nutrient-dense forage = nutrient-dense beef. By focusing on forage quality\, the farm produces healthier\, more nutrient-rich beef. \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. CEU credits are available. \nREGISTER HERE \nRotational Grazing: Improving Soil Fertility for Nutrient-Dense Beef is an OSCIA-recognized Knowledge Sharing Event (KSE) for applicants with On-Farm Climate Action Fund (OFCAF) projects in the Rotational Grazing category.

SUMMARY:Strategic Cover Cropping: Tailored Solutions for Farm-Specific Challenges and Herbicide Integration
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.

SUMMARY:Considering Renting your Farmland? Collaboration on Farmland Rental Agreements for Farmers and Landowners
DESCRIPTION:Bruce Kelly\, Program Consultant\, Farm & Food Care Ontario will lead this course on Farmland Rental Agreements\, offering farmers and landowners a unique opportunity to learn how to work together and effectively develop a written agreement that works well for both parties over time. Effective communication is the cornerstone of a successful rental agreement. It’s not just about the financial aspect but also about creating a win-win situation. Farmers need to see the benefits of good management in the long term\, and landowners need reassurance about managing their land. As more of Ontario’s farming is done on rented land\, the significance of farmer-landowner relationships is increasing. A solution is a simple yet effective written lease. The lease would outline both parties’ responsibilities and helps set collaborative goals\, define the financial terms\, and clarify the land management. It gives the farmer the security to make suitable land management investments with a longer-term perspective.  And what about the cost? Will the rent be a flat rate? When will it be paid? Will the rate change over time? Will the rental amount be based on some formula that considers the value of the crop produced? And what about capital improvements? Who pays for a new culvert\, a load of gravel or fencing repairs?  The workshop will cover topics such as the benefits of written leases\, effective communication strategies\, capital investments and basic rental formulas.  **Please note that land rental rates will not be discussed.** Webinar fee is $12.00. Please RSVP to info@greyagservices.ca.
