Precision Agriculture and Soil Health
A series of Soil Science Society of America webinars produced in partnership with The Soil Health Institute and sponsored by The Walton Family Foundation.
Date: Tuesday, March 1, 2022
Time:12:00 Noon-1:00 PM Eastern/11:00 AM-12:00 Noon Central/10:00-11:00 AM Mountain/9:00-10:00 AM PacificThe concept of precision agriculture has matured over the last 20 years as technology enables new innovations. Yet how do the concepts of soil health and regenerative agriculture converge with precision agriculture? In this webinar, the Soil Health Institute will describe a strategy for using precision agriculture tools to incorporate soil spatial variability into soil health assessments. The webinar will also discuss how these tools might be used to assess outcomes of soil management systems and contribute to ecosystem services markets.

Part 1 of a Post-Webinar Discussion on Invasive Insects: Detect, Assess, and Regulate!
Invasive insects are devastating agricultural, natural, and urban environments around the world. The Entomological Society of America is positioned to be a leader in developing a collaborative invasive species mitigation and management roadmap. As a follow-up to the four-part invasive species webinar series hosted by the Entomological Society of America, the P-IE Section Invasive Species Wildly Important Goals Team, and USDA APHIS, a panel of federal scientists will present on current methods that are used to detect, assess, and regulate potentially invasive insects in the United States and open the floor for discussion from members of the Entomological Society of America. Bring your comments and questions for this unique opportunity to discuss and interact with some of the federal scientists who are leading the effort to mitigate and manage invasive insects on the front lines.

Weed Management Weed Management in a Year with Tight Herbicide Supplies
An American Society of Agronomy webinar sponsored by the Crop Protection Network.
Date: Thursday, March 3, 2022
Time: 12:00 Noon-12:30 PM Eastern/11:00 AM-11:30 Central/10:00-10:30 AM Mountain/9:00-9:30 AM PacificTight global supply chains have affected many areas of agriculture over the last two years. Herbicide shortages may have an even larger impact across the United States in 2022, as tight supplies of products like glyphosate and glufosinate cause higher prices and uncertain product availability. This webinar will discuss some of the reasons for tight herbicide supplies, how planning for weed control this upcoming summer will be crucial, and considerations for dealing with increased costs and/or product unavailability in the 2022 “War Against Weeds”.
