SUMMARY:INRC Focus on the Future Seminar - Feb 14 Session
DESCRIPTION:Join the first session of the Iowa Nutrient Research Center’s Spring “Focus on the Future” Series! The following two topics will be presented. \nMicrobial communities as a pathway to improved woodchip and corncob bioreactor design and performance \nThe first presenter is Taylor Vroman\, Environmental Science\, Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering. \nHer research focuses on analyzing the microbial communities within corncob and woodchip bioreactors to optimize the performance of the edge-of-field conservation practice. She is currently using nitrate removal\, greenhouse gas production\, water chemistry and gene presence to determine performance in laboratory upflow columns. \nRanking the effect of GxExM factors on the economic optimum N rate \nThe second presenter is Mitch Baum\, Post doc\, Department of Agronomy. \nMitch created a ranking of influential GxExM factors on the economic optimum N rate using a well calibrated process-based cropping systems model. The goal is to explore how the annual variability of the yield response to N can be managed with crop genetics and management vs. the uncontrollable variability caused by seasonal weather fluctuations. \n \nJoin online or in person at 1306 Elings Hall on the Iowa State University campus.

SUMMARY:ILF Webinar: Agricultural Climate Resilience through Water Management and Soil Conservation
DESCRIPTION:This Iowa Learning Farm Conservation Webinar will feature Rick Cruse\, professor of agronomy and director of the Iowa Water Center at Iowa State University. Cruse was raised on a farm in Northeast Iowa and has been engaged with Iowa farmers while working at Iowa State University for over 40 years. His research\, teaching and extension efforts address management impacts on soil erosion\, water and crop production. \nCruse will highlight factors and practices which affect agricultural climate resilience. He will focus on the importance of water and water management and discuss actions including draining excess water\, capitalizing on water sourced from shallow groundwater\, and maximizing water infiltration and storage through improving soil health. \n“Water and water management are the most fundamental components of climate-resilient farm plans\,” says Cruse. “We are eager to help Midwest farmers gain a better understanding of the underutilized water resources that they may already have and how those resources can substantially improve their climate resilience.” \n \nShortly before noon CST\, click the link below or type this web address into your internet browser: https://iastate.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_xtAwWXycQZW8iwtNLz34GA#/registration
