SUMMARY:Virtual Field Day: Evaluating Manure Application and Cover Crop Planting Timing to Maximize Water Quality Benefits in Corn (VIRTUAL)
DESCRIPTION:The virtual field day aims to provide valuable insights into the impacts of different cover crop systems and manure application methods on water quality and corn yield. In this innovative project\, funded in part by the Iowa Nutrient Research Center\, the focus is on how timing affects yield and water quality when comparing fall and spring manure applications. \n\n\n\nAny person interested in cover crops\, manure application or water quality is welcome to attend the virtual field day. Participants are also encouraged to bring any questions they would like to ask.

SUMMARY:QPR Suicide Prevention Training
DESCRIPTION:Addressing the wellness needs of those working in agriculture or related areas will be the focus of several upcoming Question-Persuade-Refer (QPR) Suicide Prevention webinars sponsored by North Dakota State University Extension. The 90-minute webinar will address concerns of high stress levels in agriculture-related jobs and the toll on mental and emotional well-being. \n\n\n\nThough focused on individuals working in and around agriculture\, anyone interested in the topic can register. There is no cost for the training\, which is supported by a grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. \n\n\n\nResearch indicates the suicide rate is significantly higher for those working in agriculture. The QPR training will provide participants with awareness and skills to recognize and respond to warning signs of a mental health crisis or suicidal thinking\, and how to respond in an appropriate and supportive way. \n\n\n\nRegistration is limited to the first 30 participants per webinar.

SUMMARY:MPF Webinar- Opening the Black Box: Soil Microbial Complexity- Part 1: Foundations of Soil Microbial Ecology in Prairies (VIRTUAL)
DESCRIPTION:Soil is far more than a growing medium; it is a living system filled with unseen organisms that quietly regulate how ecosystems function. Join Dr. Sam Lord\, soil ecologist and Assistant Research Professor at the University of Missouri Center for Agroforestry\, for a two-part webinar series where we will explore how diverse soil microbes\, most of which are still unknown to science\, interact with plants and their environment to move nutrients\, store carbon\, and help ecosystems remain stable through change. \n\n\n\nBy comparing native prairies with managed agricultural soils and using modern tools that let us see both who is there and what they are doing\, this work opens the “black box” of soil life. Together\, these talks show that soil is not a static backdrop for plants\, but an active\, dynamic frontier where biological interactions belowground shape the health and resilience of landscapes above ground. \n\n\n\nThis free webinar\, to be held via Zoom\, will include a presentation and a live question-and-answer session. The webinar will be recorded\, and a link to the recording will be sent to all registrants and posted to the MPF YouTube channel.

SUMMARY:Brew Your Own Fertility: Practical Biofertilizers for Farms and Gardens (VIRTUAL)
DESCRIPTION:Join Gabriella Soto-Velez and Leah Philips of ECHO Global for an in-depth training on making your own biofertilizers to reduce reliance on purchased inputs and shrink the carbon footprint of your fertility program. \n\n\n\nWe will walk through several low-tech\, farm-friendly fermentation methods and “biological brews\,” explain what each one is best used for\, and share simple recipes\, materials lists\, timelines\, and storage tips. You will learn how to choose feedstocks from what you already have on hand\, match biofertilizers to crop stage and soil needs\, and apply them safely and effectively. \n\n\n\nWe will also cover common mistakes\, troubleshooting\, and practical considerations for growers aiming to align with organic systems. Bring your questions! We will leave plenty of time for Q&A.
