Webinar – Optimizing Nitrogen Efficiency

Optimizing Nitrogen Efficiency: Best Practices for Sustainable Corn Production (Virtual)

Living Lab – Ontario 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.

In this webinar, you’ll hear from two AAFC researchers, Craig Drury and David Pelster, examining and developing various 4R nutrient management strategies, including inhibitors and incorporation, through agronomic field trials and GHG measurements. The goal of this research is to enhance nitrogen use efficiency and productivity while mitigating the environmental impact of corn production in Ontario.

Funding for the project has been provided by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada under the Agricultural Climate Solutions – Living Labs program, and core partners. For more information, visit www.ontariosoilcrop.org/livinglab/

Seeding Winter Wheat near Oshkosh Nebraska

I am in the fie3ld with a farmer near Oshkosh Nebraska as he his no-till drilling winter wheat into a harvested corn field. In the video the farm is running their John Deere 9470RX tractor pulling a 42 foot wide Deere 1890C air drill with a 1910 commodity cart.

Winter wheat will emerge this fall and go dormant over the winter. In the spring it will stat growing again and be ready to harvest in mid July.
