Improper applications of nitrogen and phosphorus on agricultural fields can lead to pollution of water sources. Therefore, planning and documentation of proper application rates is necessary. Additionally, tracking nutrients throughout the livestock production system can help. This webinar will feature the Oregon NMPT, an internet-based record keeping and planning tool, and the Ruminant Farm Systems (RuFaS) project, which aims to build an integrated, whole-farm model that simulates milk, meat, and crop production, and critical metrics of sustainability from ruminant farms.
An application for continuing education credit for Certified Crop Advisors (CCAs) and members of the American Registry of Professional Animal Scientists (ARPAS) will be submitted.
Presenters include:
- Kristan Reed, Cornell University
- Tom Thomson, Northwest Agricultural Consulting
- Bruce Wilson, H&R Engineering LLC
- Andrea Loudenback (moderator), Colorado State University
Handouts (PDF format) will be available the day of the webinar at the live webinar information page. Find out more about this webinar and future webinars by the Livestock and Poultry Environmental Learning Community (LPELC).
