SUMMARY:It All Starts on the Farm: Raw Milk Parameters that Impact Pasteurized Dairy Product Quality
DESCRIPTION:What happens on the farm does not stay on the farm when it comes to the impact of raw milk quality on pasteurized dairy product. Many tests are used to determine the quality of raw milk\, some tests tell us about animal health\, some about the efficacy of milking hygiene or equipment cleaning and sanitation\, etc. However\, when it comes to the impact of raw milk quality on pasteurized dairy products\, there are only a few parameters that are truly impactful. This webinar will cover these parameters\, how they impact pasteurized dairy products and what can be done at the farm to control them. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Beyond Greenness: Quantifying Climate-Vegetation Interactions from Leaf to Globe
DESCRIPTION:Presentation by Mallory Barnes\, Assistant Professor\, School of Public and Environmental Affairs\, Indiana University \nAssessment and prediction of the impacts of climate change on the environment and human societies requires multi-scale understanding of interactions between biogeochemical\, hydrologic\, and atmospheric cycles. For many years\, measures of greenness from spaceborne satellites were the only way to consistently observe the terrestrial biosphere. Recent and emerging advances in remote sensing technologies and data science present a timely opportunity to explore new aspects of vegetation-climate interactions. In this talk\, I highlight two plant processes that impact climate: carbon uptake and transpiration. I will first show how machine learning techniques can be used to globally upscale carbon uptake measurements from eddy covariance towers in highly heterogenous drylands. Next\, I will show that the biophysical impacts of reforestation in the Eastern United States reduced anthropogenic warming in the Eastern United States. I will end by highlighting future opportunities for emerging technologies to overcome key knowledge gaps in vegetation-climate interactions. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Clean Lakes 101: At-Home Water Quality Action
DESCRIPTION:Join us Wednesday\, November 10th to hear Katie Richgels discuss actionable ways for residents to reduce stormwater runoff from reaching the lakes. Land use and climate impacts\, such as heavy rain and runoff\, and other headwinds threaten our progress toward healthy lakes. Fortunately\, you don’t need to live on the lakes to make a difference in our Yahara Watershed. Many small actions can make our landscape more resilient and add up to big impacts for water quality. \nOur speaker will cover how stormwater from the Madison Metro area impacts the Yahara Watershed and provide some practical strategies for reducing runoff and capturing stormwater where we live. From complex water mitigation installations such as swales and rain gardens\, to simple redirection of downspouts and collection of leaf litter\, we’ll highlight the many large and small ways you can reduce your impacts and contribute to sustainability of our lakes for many generations to come. Let’s challenge each other to change just one thing\, because together we can have a positive impact on the issues affecting our watershed. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Restoration for whom\, by whom? Exploring the socio-political dimensions of restoration
DESCRIPTION:As the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration launches into action\, urgent attention is needed to the power and politics that shape the values\, meanings\, and science driving restoration\, to enable the creation of equitable restoration initiatives. In this webinar\, we adopt a feminist political ecology lens\, with a focus on gendered power relations\, historical awareness\, and scale integration\, to examine the socio-political and economic dynamics of restoration. We demonstrate the potential of such a perspective for thinking about the social inclusivity of restoration agendas and initiatives\, and demonstrate its applicability to different restoration contexts. \nWe bring this perspective to life through three case studies published in a special issue of Ecological Restoration that asks: “Restoration for Whom\, by Whom?”. The first case\, based in Kenya\, shows how attention to power relations is needed to create more equitable Payments for Ecosystem Services (PES) schemes. The second\, which focuses on the restoration of an urban lake in Bengaluru\, India\, demonstrates the importance of taking a historical perspective to understand equity considerations in restoration. The last shows the importance of conducting multi-scalar analyses to promote inclusion in and through restoration\, using wetlands restoration as an example. Together\, these present more grounded and nuanced ways forward for inclusive restoration initiatives. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Practices for Protecting Local Farmland
DESCRIPTION:Farmland protection is critical to preserving our ability to grow food for our communities in the future\, among many other benefits including mitigating climate change and that sustainable agriculture can provide. Proactively protecting farmland is more important now more than ever\, given accelerating farmland loss and increasing urban development pressure on peri-urban and rural landscapes in Wisconsin and across the US. Wisconsin’s state and local governments have unique opportunities to enact innovative farmland protection measures\, and the opportunity to position our state as a leader in safeguarding the future of agriculture. Learn about local-\, regional-\, and state-level opportunities in farmland protection\, hear about innovative local government programs that are working to protect farmland\, and engage in a peer discussion about possible solutions. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Agroforestry Workshop: Introducing Forest Farming and Silvopasture to the Small Farms Community
DESCRIPTION:This free webinar will explore some of the different ways the small farms community can develop greater resilience by adopting agroforestry practices. Agroforestry describes a wide range of land-use practices that combine farming (of plants\, animals\, fungi) with trees\, shrubs and forest ecosystems. Agroforestry can help provide new opportunities to increase farm income while also receiving other environmental and social benefits. \nThis workshop will give a broad overview of agroforestry with special attention focusing on forest farming and silvopasture. Forest farming is the cultivation of high-value\, non-timber forest products under the protection of a forest canopy. Forest farming does not significantly interfere or modify forest ecosystems\, but essentially allows agricultural producers to farm in the woods. Some of the forest products that will be highlighted include maple & walnut syrup\, raspberries\, blackberries\, pawpaw\, shitake & lions mane mushrooms\, nuts trees (walnut\, hickory\, pecan\, hazelnut) and medicinal crops like American ginseng\, cohosh and goldenseal. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Leadership Boot Camp
DESCRIPTION:The Leadership Boot Camp Training Series was designed by the Promotion and Education Committee to serve as a fast-paced\, challenging\, one-day training session based on topics the WFBF Leadership Institute covers. Boot Camp gives Farm Bureau members the opportunity to get leadership development training but only commit to a few hours of training. The committee recognizes that not all individuals can commit the time to be involved in the WFBF Leadership Institute class. With more than 10 completed classes of the WFBF Leadership Institute\, this event can serve as a refresher for those graduates on certain topics. \nInfo here.
