View this webinar to learn about on-farm nutrient testing and evaluation to adjust nutrient management planning to increase nutrient use efficiency and minimize offsite impacts.
Adaptive nutrient management is a systematic process for refinement of on-farm nutrient management through evaluation of nutrient management practices, analysis of data, and adjustment of nutrient management strategies based on the results of the evaluations. This process facilitates continued improvement in nutrient utilization efficiency and subsequently minimization of offsite impacts. This webinar discusses the procedures for conducting on-farm testing including development of the evaluation strategy for the practice of interest to farmer(s); development of protocols for the evaluation; design and layout of an on-farm evaluation; data collection; analysis, evaluation and presentation of the results of an evaluation; methods to learn from the results; adjustment of nutrient management plan based on guidelines from Land Grant University; and continuance of the process. This webinar is sponsored and presented by members of the USDA NRCS Adaptive Nutrient Management Workgroup.
This webinar is hosted by the USDA NRCS East National Technology Support Center.
