SUMMARY:Livestock guardian dogs: Practical insights from the pasture
DESCRIPTION:As predator pressure remains a constant challenge for livestock producers\, North Dakota State University Extension and University of Minnesota Extension sheep and goat specialists will provide an informative webinar to help protect animals. \n\n\n\nThe webinar will feature a sheep producer who has owned guardian dogs for decades. \n\n\n\nIt will feature guest speaker Janet McNally\, owner of Tamarack Lamb & Wool. McNally brings more than four decades of sheep-rearing experience\, including twenty years of full-time management in a large predator environment near Hinckley\, Minnesota. \n\n\n\nWhile McNally began utilizing guardian dogs in 1982\, her expertise was put to the ultimate test in 1999 when a pack of 23 wolves moved into her immediate neighborhood. For the following decade\, she successfully managed a group of eight to 12 livestock guardian dogs\, deterring wolves\, bears\, bobcats\, coyotes and fishers from her flock. \n\n\n\nThe webinar is free to attend\, but registration is required.

SUMMARY:NACD Conservation Coffee webinar- Brewing Partnerships: Tackling Nitrate in Northeast Nebraska
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Jim Olson\, Source Water Protection Specialist\, learn how proactive outreach and producer partnerships are protecting drinking water in northeast Nebraska. \n\n\n\nNitrate contamination remains a persistent drinking water challenge across agricultural regions of the Midwest. This presentation shares an outreach model used in northeast Nebraska to proactively engage producers and communities whose water supplies are approaching the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency nitrate maximum contaminant level. The session will highlight communication strategies\, measurable outcomes\, and lessons learned and explore the value of building a collaborative Source Water Protection Network to expand conservation impact.

SUMMARY:MPF Webinar: Opening the Black Box- Soil Microbial Complexity- Part 2: Soil as the Final Frontier (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 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. By 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. The first part of this webinar series will occur on March 25\, 2026. \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.
