About this event
At Seeds Canada 2023, the theme this year is Seed Innovation = Sustainability.
This conference will explore topics focused on this timely theme. Speakers, sessions and discussions will be thought-provoking and geared toward helping your business succeed while contributing to a viable future.
On April 13 SWAT MAPS will be at Lakeland College for Farm 4.0: The Future of Agriculture to contribute to the discussion and how to bridge the gap between practical agriculture and the new technologies being adopted.
Crop nutrient removal with harvest is often the largest mechanism for nutrient export from crop fields. Accurate and precise removal estimates are necessary for determining fertilizer rates, maintaining optimum soil-test levels and nutrient budgeting.
During this webinar, Dr. Jones will present recent work examining management effects on grain nutrient concentrations and removal rates for corn and soybean. Specifically, how nutrient removal at high yield levels affects fertilization decisions.
Dr. John Jones is a Soil Fertility and Nutrient Management Researcher & Lecturer in the Department of Soil Science at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Dr. Jones’ research focuses on measuring and managing soil nutrients for agronomic and water quality benefits through soil-test calibration, identifying in what forms nutrients exist in soil and water, and improving nutrient recommendations. He is an alumnus of Kansas State (BSc.) and Iowa State (MSc. & Ph.D.) Universities. John and his family live on their farm near Columbus, WI.
Carbon cycling in soil is a complex, but important topic. At SWAT MAPS, our fundamental goal is to understand the influences of soil, water, and topography on in-field variability and utilization of soil-applied nutrients. How might soil pH and texture affect carbon use efficiency and other nutrients such as nitrogen or phosphorus? How does fertilizer, crop residue, or other soil amendments help build soil organic carbon and what might be happening from zone to zone to those inputs?
Jordon Wade, assistant professor of soil health and fertility at the University of Missouri will join us for the next Agronomy Insights webinar on March 8, at 9:00 am CST. Much of Jordon’s work focuses on on-farm trials and decision support tools for farmers. He has experience in nutrient management and developing soil health indicators and is also the Director of the University of Missouri’s Soil Health Assessment.

The Nebraska Independent Crop Consultant Association are people who provide professional, technical advice to farmers in Nebraska. Members include agronomists, entomologists, crop and soil scientists, weed science experts, plant pathologists, along with those who are experienced in tillage, seed variety selection and irrigation management.
The Western Canadian Crop Production Show has been the must-attend event for prairie farmers since 1983, making it a true leader in the field of crop science and technology.
Each January, outstanding exhibitors, presenters and attendees converge in Saskatoon to experience the latest products and services for the upcoming growing season.
Though frigid Saskatchewan temperatures are almost always inevitable, the 4-day event draws consistent crowds who have come to rely on the sold-out trade show and industry-leading speakers for all the trending information producers need the most.
