The\u00a0Iowa Learning Farms\u00a0(ILF)\u00a0conservation webinar taking place April 19 at noon CDT will feature\u00a0Matthew Helmers, director of the Iowa Nutrient Research Center, Dean\u2019s Professor, College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, and Brent and Cindy Hart Professor, Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering, at Iowa State University. Helmers conducts research and extension outreach programs concerning nutrient management, cropping practices, drainage design and management, and strategic placement of buffer systems on nutrient export from agricultural landscapes.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the webinar, \u201cImpacts of Cover Crops on Nitrate-N Loss: Plot to Watershed Scale,\u201d Helmers will overview the current status of cover crop adoption in Iowa, note progress made over the past 10 years and provide updates on water quality investigations on nitrate-N reduction potential of practices studied. He will highlight work on drainage water research and its impacts on water quality from the plot to the watershed scale.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe data and outcomes of our research at every scale have proven the efficacy of cover crops as an effective practice that directly contributes to reduction of nitrate-N loss from agricultural fields into waterways,\u201d said Helmers. \u201cAcknowledging that in some cases, it may take a longer time to see results than we would prefer, cover crops are one of the more important tools that can protect water quality. To meet nutrient reduction goals, it is crucial to achieve growth in adoption throughout Iowa.\u201d<\/p>\n

Participants are encouraged to ask questions of the presenters. People from all backgrounds and areas of interest are encouraged to join.<\/p>\n
