SUMMARY:Regenerative agriculture: What every agricultural professional needs to know
DESCRIPTION:Regenerative agriculture is more than a buzzword. Agricultural professionals may be called upon to help clients implement regenerative agriculture practices\, including to meet requests from important buyers of crop and livestock products. Key elements of regenerative agriculture include a focus on farmer bottom line rather than maximum yields and a reduced reliance on purchased fertilizers and crop protectants through natural nutrient cycling and the biological controls of weeds\, insects\, and diseases. If called upon to help a client implement regenerative agriculture systems\, agricultural professionals should be prepared to answer questions from clients and others about regenerative agriculture\, and they should have a plan for accessing expertise\, pursuing professional development\, and minimizing client risk. Business models may need to be adjusted to ensure healthy revenue from expertise and services to replace reduced input sales revenue. \nFollow this link to learn more.

SUMMARY:Preparing for and Adapting to Future Floods with Natural Flood Management
DESCRIPTION:Are you curious about opportunities to mitigate flood risks to communities and infrastructure with cost-effective\, nature-based solutions? In this session\, participants will learn about Natural Flood Management (NFM)\, an emerging concept that involves using a combination of multiple practices\, in different parts of the watershed\, to increase the landscape’s ability to store and manage water. You’ll hear about watershed-scale risk assessments and NFM demonstration projects that are underway in Ashland County to identify infrastructure vulnerabilities and prioritize where flood risks can be minimized through upstream hydrologic restoration actions. The panel will also discuss benefit-cost data\, screening tools\, infrastructure design approaches\, and other resources that can help your community tap into hazard mitigation\, disaster recovery\, and climate adaptation funding. \nFollow this link to learn more.

SUMMARY:Septic Systems 101
DESCRIPTION:In this webinar training hosted by The Private Well Class\, you’ll learn about septic system management as part of a larger strategy to protect the water in your private well. We will provide answers to common questions\, such as: \n\nWhat is safe to flush down my drains?\nDo I need to put additives in my septic tank?\nHow do I prolong the life of my system?\n\nFollow this link to learn more.

SUMMARY:Do healthy soils grow healthier food?
DESCRIPTION:It seems logical that healthier soil could grow healthier food. But how do we measure this and demonstrate it scientifically? Exploring links between the nutrient density of food and the soil it was grown in remains a young field of study—we often have more questions than answers. \nThe Bionutrient Institute is a collaborative project that seeks to shed light on this topic. In 2018 they began analyzing crops and soil samples from a wide range of farms across the country to help us understand connections between soil health and food nutrition. Pasa partnered with Bionutrient Institute in 2020 to measure the nutrient content of crops grown by farmers participating in our Soil Health Benchmark Study. These analyses can help us understand whether different approaches to field management can produce healthier food. \nFollow this link for more information.

SUMMARY:From intake to the tap
DESCRIPTION:Toxin-producing cyanobacteria blooms are a growing concern for water utilities that use surface water supplies across the country. To make informed decisions about how to limit exposure to cyanotoxins\, water utilities need to understand (1) cyanotoxins occur; (2) their presence in a given water source\, (3) management strategies to reduce cyanotoxins in source waters\, and (4) treatments to prevent cyanotoxins from reaching customers. \nThe first presentation by Ms. Tricia Kilgore will review Beaufort Jasper Water and Sewer Authority’s experience with algae blooms\, taste and odor\, the development of an algae monitoring plan for two drinking water reservoirs\, and algae bloom treatment in the reservoir and in the plants. The second presentation by Dr. Erik Rosenfeldt provides insight on which techniques are effective for addressing cyanotoxins present within intact cyanobacteria cells (intracellular)\, and which techniques are effective for removing cyanotoxins that are dissolved in the water (extracellular). \nFollow this link for more information.

SUMMARY:Best management practices for pesticide applications
DESCRIPTION:To use pesticides legally and effectively\, the first step is to identify the pest\, then determine your pest management strategy. If a pesticide or mixture of pesticides is the best choice\, the pest manager must read\, understand\, and follow the pesticide product’s label. \nThis presentation will walk through a number of key label statements. Emphasis will be placed on the importance of assuring the site is allowed on the label\, environmental hazard statements\, mixing compatibility and jar tests\, and sprayer clean-up procedures. \nFollow this link to learn more and register.
