SUMMARY:Surface Water Grant Applicant Webinars
DESCRIPTION:Are you curious about the DNR’s Surface Water Grant Program?   Would you like to learn more about funding opportunities\, applying\, and managing grant projects?  Please attend one of our upcoming two-hour webinars. We will be offering six in total\, each with a regional focus. Attendees will meet their local biologist and environmental grant specialist; learn about grants available for the protection and restoration of lakes\, rivers and wetlands\, and get tips on applying and managing projects. We’ll provide some time to answer your questions as you look toward preparing a pre-proposal for the first program deadline coming on September 2.  NOTE: We will be focusing on Education\, Planning\, and Management Grants\, including those for lakes\, rivers and AIS. We will not cover the Lake Monitoring and Protection Network or County Lake Grants at this time. We are planning a webinar to cover these programs for the end of July.  For registration information\, contact Ali at  Alison.Mikulyuk@wisconsin.gov

SUMMARY:The Pros and Cons of Insurance Pest Management: The New IPM
DESCRIPTION:Although corn and soybean variety improvements (including GM crops) and reductions in pest pressures have combined to simplify crop production and improve yields\, the adoption of pest management technologies – including chemical pesticides – is higher and more uniform than ever in these cropping systems. The key advantages of these approaches are convenience and simplicity\, in terms of a reduction in the need for monitoring pests and a perception of minimizing risk. Dr. Krupke will discuss some of the unanticipated consequences of this approach and whether the time is right to reconsider some of the default approaches in corn and soybean insect pest management. \nRegister here

SUMMARY:Impact of Roller-Crimping Cereal Rye + Live Weed Zapper Demonstration
DESCRIPTION:Levi will show us the field where he previously roller-crimped a cereal rye cover crop and planted soybeans. He will also demonstrate the Weed Zapper\, which uses electricity to kill weed escapes that have grown taller than the soybean canopy. In lieu of traditional cultivation\, both roller-crimping cover crops and zapping weeds are part of Levi’s strategy for reducing tillage in his organic row crop system. \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Approaching Oats as a Cash Crop
DESCRIPTION:Oats are becoming a hot commodity as more grocery shoppers reach for oat-based products – but in the field\, we’re still treating them like a second-class crop. This virtual field day will showcase the steps Scott has taken to step up oat production on his organic crop and livestock farm\, including his participation in a cooperator trial for better oat variety selection.  The field day will also explore how the Wedemeiers use interseeding cover crops and relay cropping with small grains to manage nutrients\, erosion\, and weeds on their farm from underseeding clover with oats to relay cropping spring wheat and soybeans. \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Using Conservation to Improve Farm Profitability - 60-Inch-Row Corn + Interseeded Cover Crops
DESCRIPTION:Nathan and Sarah farm using in-field conservation practices that reduce soil loss\, increase soil health\, reduce inputs\, and provide forage for livestock. They also target edge-of-field conservation on marginal lands to provide water quality and wildlife benefits while improving return on investment on farmed acres. We’ll chat with Nathan twice over the course of the season to learn about conservation he’s using on his farm to increase profitability.  In part 1\, Nathan will discuss planting corn in 60-inch rows with interseeded cover crops\, and he’ll share the environmental and agronomic benefits he sees – or hopes to see – from the practice. \nLearn more and register here.

SUMMARY:Tillage Management and Structural Conservation Practices
DESCRIPTION:In this webinar\, the presenter will compare tillage management practices and structural conservation practices in use by growers in 2013-2016 to those in use in 2003-2006 to evaluate changes in practice adoption between the two time periods. Tillage management system practices include conventional tillage\, no-till\, and conservation tillage; structural conservation practices include buffer strips\, filters\, terraces\, contour farming\, and strip cropping.  Approaches to tillage management and structural conservation practices used by growers have shifted significantly between the two periods\, with the trend toward less tillage and more comprehensive cropland conservation treatment. Information presented will include conservation plan data from NRCS field offices. \nFind connection information here.

SUMMARY:Creating and Maintaining Upland Habitat
DESCRIPTION:Creating and maintaining upland habitat for wildlife is important to many landowners. This presentation will cover the habitat requirements of many upland wildlife species and how forestry practices can be used to improve their habitat. Financial and technical resources\, that are available to landowners\, will also be reviewed. H abitat loss is the greatest threat to wildlife conservation. Landowners can manage forestland to maintain and even create essential habitat for various species of wildlife. Understanding the relationship between wildlife and your woodlands is critical to learning the necessary steps to improve habitat on your property. With planning and appropriate management\, you can favor the animals and plants you most desire on your property. \nMore information here.

SUMMARY:No-Till Oat and Rye Production
DESCRIPTION:Martin has been a long-time user of no-till and cover crops. It was his cover crop that got him into growing rye for his own cover crop seed. He then decided to further diversify his farm with an oat crop. This virtual farm tour will showcase both rye and oats in the field\, and Martin will share the lessons he’s learned about producing both crops\, from no-till planting in soybean residue to harvesting and cleaning the product. \nLearn more and register here.

SUMMARY:Aquatic Plant ID Workshop
DESCRIPTION:In place of the usual hands-on summer aquatic plant identification workshops\, we are holding one virtual webinar this year. We will be covering a similar set of species as we would at the hands-on workshops\, and the day will include rotations with multiple staff covering different groups of plants. There will be time for Q&A after each group of species\, and a longer Q&A session at the end. We realize it won’t be the same as the hands-on sessions with live plants and field ID practice\, but we hope this is a valuable alternative to prepare those of you that will be doing point-intercept surveys or other aquatic plant work this season. This webinar will also be recorded for later viewing. \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Conservation Drainage - Managing Water for the Future
DESCRIPTION:Join the North Central Climate Collaborative for their next webinar Conservation Drainage – Managing Water for the Future featuring John McMaine. \nTile drainage is widespread throughout the Midwest.  As weather patterns continue to shift toward more precipitation outside of the growing season and less precipitation during the growing season\, water management will need to continue to adapt to provide resilience. Conservation drainage is a concept that incorporates methods of storing water or treating water in the landscape or edge-of-field to increase resilience and improve water quality while maintaining the agronomic benefits of tile drainage.  This webinar will cover some of the recent research in conservation drainage\, how they can be incorporated into new and existing practices\, and what the future of conservation drainage might look like. \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Working with Neighbors to Integrate Livestock and Improve Soil
DESCRIPTION:Tom’s goal is to improve the soil on his family’s century farm. To do this\, he has been working with neighbors Jim Funke\, Jon Merrill\, and Conner Allender to integrate cattle\, sheep\, and poultry into his cropping system in a variety of ways. They’ve been practicing management-intensive grazing for four years on selected areas.  We’ll see areas where unrolled hay bales were fed prior to cash crop planting and where stockpiled grazing took place. We’ll also see how chickens follow cows\, along with pictures showing where soils that were once poor have become productive again. Not only is Tom seeing life come back to the soil and farm\, he is building community in rural Iowa in the process. \nLearn more and register here.
