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.
