SUMMARY:Sustainable Intensification of the Rural Landscape: Protecting Soil Health\, Water Quality and Farm Profitability
DESCRIPTION:Rural landscapes are complex physical and biological systems integrating cropland\, forestland and riparian zones\, crop rotations and nutrient cycling\, a balance of pests and pathogens\, and other interactions. Many producers seek to redesign their cropping systems guided by agro-ecological principles whereby soil health and ecological services accumulate in mutually supportive ways. They are actively involved in devising\, testing\, and evaluating new and innovative practices on their farms to enhance biodiversity and beneficial interactions\, improve resilience and mitigate risk. Attendees at this Michigan Chapter of the Soil and Water Conservation Society Seminar will discover practical and sustainable ways to manage the rural landscape through five presentations. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Pesticide Applicator Training Program
DESCRIPTION:The UW Pesticide Applicator Training Program has created multiple formats for private applicator trainings to address increased training demand. \nA private applicator is someone that applies restricted use pesticides to produce an agricultural commodity on their own property or the property owned or rented by an employer. Examples of agricultural commodities are grain and forage crops\, fruit crops or horticulture products. A restricted use pesticide can be identified by checking the label of the product you wish to use. \nA Private Applicator Certification is valid for 5 years. There are three steps toward certification: purchasing the training manual\, training and taking the test. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Treating Tile Drainage with Farm-Scale Constructed Wetlands
DESCRIPTION:In the webinar\, “Tile Flows\, Backhoes and Microbes: Constructed Wetlands for Subsurface Drainage Treatment\,” Kostel will discuss the siting\, design and implementation of constructed tile-treatment wetlands that use the naturally occurring wetland functions and processes to capture and remove nutrients from tile flow. Showcasing farm-based Illinois NRCS 656 constructed wetlands\, she will discuss how appropriately sited and designed wetlands serve a key role in supporting profitable farming operations while addressing nitrogen loss. In addition\, Kostel will highlight the nutrient reductions observed through research conducted on two constructed wetlands in Illinois. \n“Reducing nitrogen loads in water leaving tile drainage systems is of critical importance to water quality efforts and often the use of constructed wetlands is underutilized practice\,” said Kostel. “The implementation of these structures has not only proven to leverage the natural and sustainable removal of nutrients\, but they also provide other benefits such as climate resiliency\, wildlife habitat and recreation opportunities. I hope to participants in this webinar will leave with a better understanding of this effective practice and will take constructed wetlands into consideration as a part of their conservation planning.” \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Equipping Municipalities with Climate Change Data to Inform Stormwater Management
DESCRIPTION:To appropriately size infrastructure\, stormwater managers use estimates of precipitation amount over a range of durations and recurrence intervals (e.g.\, 100-year 24-hour storms). These estimates are created for every location in the United States by NOAA in their Atlas-14 publication. While Atlas-14 is an important guidance document\, a limitation is that it does not account for climate change\, even though some of its estimates include data from the late 1800’s. Recent federal infrastructure spending has dedicated funding for updating Atlas-14\, but the process could take years and the demand is already high. To address this gap\, we created a proof-of-concept application of NOAA’s Atlas-14 methods to dynamically down-scaled climate change projections. This work documents the challenges of combining the methods; and created tools and techniques that can be applied to future iterations climate change projections. \nInfo here.
