SUMMARY:Ag Water Quality Webinar Series
DESCRIPTION:The UW-Madison Division of Extension’s Agriculture Water Quality Program is hosting a biweekly webinar series in early 2023 on important factors impacting ground and surface water quality. The winter webinar series is supported by Wisconsin Farmers Union. Each webinar will be an hour\, starting at 11:00am\, and will have one continuing education credit for certified crop advisors. Registration is free but required. Please contact Guolong Liang with questions\, gliang6@wisc.edu. \nJanuary 31\, 2023 : Manure and water quality: why looking at the calendar matters \nLaura Paletta and Dr. Francisco Arriaga will take a closer look at the best and worst times to spread manure\, how water quality is impacted\, and ways to reduce nutrient losses. \nFebruary 14\, 2023- Soil Test Phosphorus: An important risk factor when considering water quality \nSoil test phosphorus level is one of a field’s biggest risk factors when considering surface water quality impact. Learn how and why STP plays such an important role in phosphorus loss and how to agronomically manage STP with Chelsea Zegler and Dr. Jamie Patton. \nFebruary 28\, 2023- Nitrogen Leaching in Central Sands: Regional and Field-based Estimation \nAgricultural practices affect Nitrogen dynamics and water quality. Using a mass balance method\, Guolong Liang and Emily Heinmann will explain how to estimate leachable nitrogen on a field scale and a regional scale\, with the example of Central Sands.

SUMMARY:Certified Crop Adviser and Farmer Perspectives on Pesticide Resistance Management: A Social Approach
DESCRIPTION:Past research has indicated growing farmer awareness of pesticide resistance issues. However\, proactive management is often stymied by misplaced optimism in a miracle pesticide and feelings of fatalism. Yet farmers clearly do not make decisions alone\, as their in-field advisers can have considerable positive impact on their knowledge\, perspectives\, and decisions. This webinar will discuss the results of a nationwide survey of Certified Crop Advisers (CCAs) on the topic of pesticide resistance. Farmer and CCA perspectives on the issue will be compared and an outline of common approaches and barriers to productive advising will be presented. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Biochar for stormwater management: Challenges in translating success from the laboratory to the field
DESCRIPTION:Biochar is a charcoal-like substance produced by the thermal decomposition of biomass. Long utilized as a soil amendment for its moisture retention properties and stable carbon content\, biochar has recently gained substantial attention as a novel stormwater filter material. Numerous studies have demonstrated the utility of biochar to treat a broad array of contaminants; including nitrogen\, phosphorus\, heavy metals\, pathogens\, organic carbon\, and organic contaminants. While the literature demonstrates a striking understanding and ability to control and tune these removal processes at the laboratory scale\, application at the field scale has resulted in challenges and mixed success. What is getting lost in translation? \n\n\nThis seminar will provide an overview the utility of biochar as a media amendment for enhancing contaminant removal in stormwater filtration systems. Two case studies spanning from laboratory-scale testing to mesocosm- or demonstration-scale performance evaluation will presented\, which resulted in mixed success. These case studies demonstrate that biochar selection is a critical component of the design process\, and warrant additional work to specify biochar properties that can indicate performance according to application-specific requirements. The seminar will conclude with a summary of lessons learned and best-practice recommendations for future applications. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Moving Manure and Mortalities after Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza
DESCRIPTION:Between January 2022 and February 2023\, Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) has affected 58.4 million birds. This includes 316 commercial flocks\, 446 backyard flocks\, and wild birds spread across most US states. HPAI is a devastating virus that harms birds but also restricts the movement of other materials on and off commercial poultry farms. Protecting commercial poultry farms requires a multifaceted response by farms\, government\, and industry partners. When a flock is confirmed positive with HPAI\, there are layers of oversight from multiple agencies at national\, state and sometimes even regional levels. This webinar will share research and guidance on minimizing the risk of virus movement through manure and mortality management. This webinar will also explain the roles technical advisors can play in response to an outbreak. \nAn application for continuing education credit for Certified Crop Advisors (CCAs) and members of the American Registry of Professional Animal Scientists (ARPAS) will be submitted. \nInfo here. \n

SUMMARY:Beating the Weeds Without Herbicides: Soil-Friendly Organic Weed Management
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this webinar during which we will discuss weed management in organic agriculture and highlight soil friendly approaches to help maintain sufficient weed suppression and satisfactory organic yields. \nWeeds pose the #1 production hurdle to successful organic farming\, and organic producers continually seek to optimize their weed management system for both soil health and production. Today’s webinar will describe an ecological approach to integrated organic weed management including preventive measures based on the four NRCS principles of soil health\, managing nutrients and moisture to favor crops over weeds\, choosing weed-competitive crops and cultivars\, and a diverse toolbox of weed control tactics that reduce the need for cultivation. Together\, these practices can minimize the impacts of organic weed management on soil life and soil structure while maintaining sufficient weed suppression and satisfactory organic yields. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Restoring and Maintaining Riparian (Water) Areas in a Grazing System
DESCRIPTION:This session will focus on best practices where grazing systems and waterways interact on the farm. Animals can be a helpful participant in stewarding our water but can also do great harm. Moving earth\, planting\, and grazing activities must be well planned and coordinated to be beneficial. We will discuss approaches to this practice and resources for more support. Facilitated by FACT and Steve Gabriel\, farmer and consultant with Wellspring Forest Farm and author of SILVOPASTURE. \nThis webinar is a follow-up to a previous FACT webinar with Steve Gabriel called\, “Water Management for Pasture Grazing Systems.” \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:How to Explain Data Through Visualization and Storytelling
DESCRIPTION:“Data storytelling is the secret sauce\,” said Nicole Callahan\, a data analyst with the Education Department’s Federal Student Aid Office. The reason is simple: Data that just sits locked away in a storage container is useless. Data is only powerful when it’s used to tell a story. But figuring out how to turn a dataset into insights isn’t always easy. \nJoin us online Wednesday\, April 5\, at 2 p.m. ET/11 a.m. PT to learn key strategies\, tools and processes you can use to make data storytelling and visualization a reality. \nSpecifically\, you’ll learn: \n\nThe basic tools and understanding you need to utilize data visualization and storytelling.\nHow effective data storytelling can help you make better decisions for your team\, organization and mission overall.\nThe biggest barriers agencies face when creating data strategies.\n\nYou’ll hear from: \n\nRachel Leventhal-Weiner\, Director of Evaluation and Impact\, State of Connecticut\, Office of Policy and Management\n\nInfo here.

SUMMARY:South West Spring Conservation Gathering
DESCRIPTION:All women farmers\, landowners and conservationists from the Vernon\, Crawford\, Grant and surrounding counties are welcome to attend—whatever your background\, from beginners to experts! \nAt this gathering\, we will dig into the details on dirt—no\, make that soil! What can you learn about soil from the way it feels and smells? What does its texture mean for how you manage it? For this event we’ll have some soil samples to investigate\, but also invite you to bring samples of your own if you’d like. Just dig a small amount (think trowel\, not spade) and place it in a bag or other container\, and make a note of the conditions where you collected it. No judgement here\, we just want to geek out a bit together on how truly fascinating soil is! \nInfo here.
