SUMMARY:Soil Health Nexus Digital Cafe Series Webinar (VIRTUAL)
DESCRIPTION:The Soil Health Nexus is hosting a series of informal soil health webinars featuring Extension soil health experts and researchers from across the region\, who will discuss the latest soil health research\, resources\, and news. The webinars take place monthly; they are an hour long\, with a 20-minute presentation\, followed by 10 minutes of Q&A\, and then a casual 30-minute Digital Café where attendees can continue discussing the topic in more depth with Soil Health Nexus members. \n\n\n\nThis month’s topic: Soil and Human Health: Current Status and Future Needs.  \n\n\n\nJoin us for this July edition of the Soil Health Nexus Digital Café\, featuring Dr. Jonathan Brevik\, Professor of Soils and Geology at Southern Illinois University\, as he discusses the ways soil influences our health. Soil usually isn’t the first thing people think of when their health comes up\, but there are many connections. Soils provide the nutrient base for our foods and the majority of modern medicines\, and they can also cause disease or illness. The connections are both direct and indirect. Dr. Brevik will highlight many connections between soils and human health and discuss pressing future research needs in this area.

SUMMARY:MPF Webinar: Making "Home on the Range" for Monarch Butterflies (VIRTUAL)
DESCRIPTION:The abundance of milkweed species\, the sole host plants for monarch larvae\, has dramatically declined in the past 25 years due to increased usage of herbicides and the spread of row crop agriculture that covers 21% of the continental United States. Given the importance of milkweeds to monarch larvae\, there has been a major conservation effort to increase milkweed abundance in many sectors. \n\n\n\nHowever\, conservation efforts have largely ignored rangeland because of the incorrect assumption that grazers do not consume milkweeds\, and that milkweed abundance may be near maximum in rangeland. This is a significant conservation blind spot because rangeland covers 34% of the continental United States. \n\n\n\nJoin University of Nebraska Omaha Associate Professor of Biology and Environmental Studies Associate Director Timothy Dickson\, Ph.D.\, for a webinar on his research exploring how grazing grasslands in Nebraska\, Kansas\, Missouri\, and Iowa can better support the monarch lifecycle through the promotion of native milkweed species as cattle food sources. \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.
