Description: Hosted by the NRCS Biology Webinar Series, this presentation explores the intersection of agricultural land management and grassland bird conservation in the northeastern U.S. Led by Dr. Allan Strong of the University of Vermont’s Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural Resources, this session dives into over two decades of collaborative research on Bobolinks, Savannah Sparrows, and bird-friendly farming practices.
Drawing on long-term studies conducted in Vermont’s Champlain Valley, Dr. Strong shares key findings on how specific hayland and pastureland management strategies can support both biodiversity and farm profitability. Attendees will gain insights into the science behind sustainable agriculture, learn about practical approaches to integrating conservation goals into working lands, and hear about the collaborative efforts between researchers, landowners, and conservation agencies that are making a difference for both birds and rural communities.

Description: This presentation will use a scenario-based approach to discuss how to identify, measure, and communicate the impact of natural resource Extension outreach and programs through alignment of program activities with expected outcomes, use of effective data collection approaches, and extrapolation of existing research to demonstrate impact. This is the 11th webinar in a year-long series hosted by the Asssociation of Natural Resource Extension Professionals (ANREP).

Description: This 2-hour workshop will focus on seed collection strategies for these major tree species groups: large-seeded hardwoods (red oak, white oak, hickory), small-seeded hardwoods (red/sugar maple, black cherry), and conifers (eastern white pine, white spruce). We will rely on content from the Woody Plant Seed Manual, Seeds of Ontario Trees and Shrubs, and Field Guide to Native Oak species of eastern North America. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation will also provide a brief update and additional information about NY state reforestation efforts.
Description: A known obstacle to Tribes participating in NRCS programs is ensuring that our standards and specifications reflect Tribal management practices. Tribal Liaison and Resource Conservationist will visit about the Interim CPS process so it is more transparent, easily navigated, and collaborative. They will also highlight flexible opportunities and alternative pathways for existing Conservation Practices.
