Description: ManureDB is a national database designed to collect, organize, and share manure nutrient data from across the country. It helps producers, planners, and researchers better understand manure nutrient characteristics. By contributing data, NRCS staff and partners help build a more complete picture of manure characteristics across regions, species, and management systems to support a more robust dataset.

Description: The Soil Health Division has completed an update to the Conservation Evaluation and Monitoring Activity-CEMA 216, to align and support NRCS national priorities. SHD has developed the streamlined CEMA 216 Soil Health Testing, revised EQIP payment scenarios, and updated support resources in January 2026 for immediate use by producers, TSPs, and field office staff. This updated information will support the launch of the Regenerative Ag. Pilot Program.
This webinar will provide updated details for CEMA 216 along with critical updates to Soil Health Testing Scenarios, payment scenarios, and specific planning and implementation activities.

Description: Join the Organic Farming Research Foundation (OFRF) to learn about research related to organic livestock production and grazing management. Topics such as animal health, feed, grazing and pasture management, and crop-livestock integration will be discussed. The webinar will provide detailed scientific information and give insight into peer-reviewed research treatments and results. The webinar will conclude with a Q+A session, and participants will also have the opportunity to answer quiz questions and earn Certified Crop Advisor Continuing Education Credits.

Description: This webinar will introduce P-SHEC to planners who work with producers and landowners to provide them economically viable and sustainable alternatives.
While soil health practices such as cover crops, no-till, and nutrient management are associated with improvements to water quality, drought resilience, and soil organic matter, some farmers may be reluctant to adopt new practices due to the uncertainty of potential costs of implementing a practice.
To address that challenge, American Farmland Trust (AFT), in partnership with USDA NRCS, developed a Predictive Soil Health Economic Calculator (P-SHEC) Tool to use with row crop farmers interested in adopting soil health practices. P-SHEC is a user-friendly online tool that estimates the potential long-term costs and benefits of adopting certain soil health practices, aiming to provide users with better-informed decision-making support. This tool should be used alongside conservation technical assistance and planning.

Description: This webinar will highlight both CEMA 216 Soil Health Testing and CEMA 217 Soil and Source Testing for Nutrient Management. It will compare and contrast both CEMA's to aid conservation planners, producers, qualified individuals, and technical service providers with planning and implementation of the activities.
During this webinar we will discuss when, where and why you should plan and implement CEMA 216 or CEMA 217. Soil Health Testing - CEMA 216 is the quantitative testing for biological, chemical, and physical characteristics of soil and constraints using approved laboratory methods. Soil and Source Testing for Nutrient Management - CEMA 217 is a sampling strategy for nutrient management measuring nutrient levels in soil and or nutrient source.

Description: Participants will learn about the extent of the problem of wind erosion on cropland in the US, the main mechanisms of wind erosion at the soil particle level, and the first of five strategies to solve the problem; increasing high carbon residue through a proper crop rotation and good residue management.
Participants will learn about the problem of wind erosion and the five main strategies to solve the problem. This is the first webinar in a three-part series.

Description: Ben Powell (Extension Associate, Apiculture and Pollinator Program Coordinator – Clemson Extension) will discuss the biology and impact of the invasive yellow-legged hornet.
|
12
Description: Participants will learn about two of the five main strategies to solve the problem of wind erosion. These include; increasing growing green vegetation on the soil surface (crop biomass, cover crops, and permanent vegetation) and decreasing the unsheltered distance across the field through decreasing field size, changing field orientation to prevailing winds, and adding windbreaks and other barriers.
Participants will learn about two of the five main strategies to solve the problem of wind erosion. This is the second webinar in a three-part series.
