TOPP: Fundamentals of Fertility Management
TOPP: Fundamentals of Fertility Management
Good soil management is at the core of any agricultural operation. The soil provides the essential nutrients for plant performance. In this workshop, we'll discuss the differences between organic and conventional fertility management, ranging from fertilizer rate of release to crediting nutrient contributions from soil organic matter, and just how much you can rely on a microbial community to help meet fertility needs. We will also discuss how and when to collect a soil sample for soil nutrient testing, how to interpret soil test results, and the differences between a soil fertility test and a soil health test.

TOPP: Cover Cropping
TOPP: Cover Cropping
Are you looking to implement or fine tune your cover cropping systems? This workshop will show how cover crops can be the primary input in organic systems. It will discuss how cover crops can be used to reduce reliance on nitrogen fertilizer, disrupt pest cycles, and mitigate soil damage associated with tillage. The workshop will also cover the differences in organic and conventional cover crop management in horticultural and agronomic cropping systems.
