A Closer Look at Reducing Nitrate Leaching
November 13 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Sponsored by North Central Region Water Network
Nitrogen loss to groundwater can lead to environmental and human health concerns – from increased cancer risk, birth defects, and blue baby syndrome to harmful algal blooms. But not enough nitrogen can cause crop yield and quality loss. Tune into this edition of The Current Webinar Series as we discuss recent research on BMPs to reduce nitrate leaching and methods to calculate potential nitrate loss so you can better optimize N inputs.
Featured Speakers:
- Javed Iqbal, Assistant Professor and Nutrient Management and Water Quality Extension Specialist, University of Nebraska-Lincoln
- Nathan Sedghi, Associate Extension Agent, Virginia Cooperative Extension
- Guolong Liang, Commercial Vegetable Quality Outreach Specialist, University of Wisconsin-Madison Division of Extension
