InfoAg Digital Learning Series Begins in July
This summer’s InfoAg Conference has been postponed until December 2020, but that doesn’t mean you have to wait for the information you need. The Fertilizer Institute proudly presents InfoAg LearningXChange. Designed for crop advisors and those who serve farmer customers, this new webinar series features the content you expect from InfoAg but presented online either live or on-demand at your convenience. We’ve also teamed up with the American Society of Agronomy to make CEUs available for each session.
With InfoAg 2020 postponed until December, these sessions will give you timely information about in-field topics to help you meet your customers’ needs and stay at the top of your career. This webinar series is free to all and registration is available at infoag.org.
Starting on July 28, the first session will focus on how the placement of nitrogen fertilizer can impact productivity, profitability, and sustainability. Future topics also include:
- Tissue testing for variable rate application of micronutrients
- Working with data from this year’s cropping season
- Optimum strip-till placement
- Evaluating 2020 in-field testing data
- Using on-farm data to update nitrogen recommendations for corn
And the learning continues at InfoAg 2020 LIVE in December in St. Louis.
25 Years of the InfoAg Conference
For 25 years, InfoAg has been the premier conference on the practical application of precision agriculture. The conference is moving into a new era as it transitions to management under The Fertilizer Institute. InfoAg will still be the place to learn about new crop production strategies and practices linked to precision agriculture and data management, but as modern agriculture must grow and adapt to meet a new set of challenges, so too must InfoAg.
With the new theme, ‘Advancing Modern Agriculture through Data-Driven Solutions,’ the InfoAg landscape will expand to include a broader reach of tools, technologies, products, and practices crop advisors can use to create solutions for their farmer customers. Building on opportunities and challenges facing the food supply chain, the conference links these solutions to impacts on nutrient use efficiency, crop performance, soil health, and the environment.
This year you’ll find sessions and workshops that support the work of crop advisors and ag retailers in their efforts to encourage growers to adopt new approaches to advancing modern agriculture. In addition to common content themes of the past, the educational program will address precision agriculture relating to micronutrient management; biostimulants and biologicals in a production system; soil health assessments; and 4R Nutrient Stewardship strategies to increase nutrient use efficiency, crop performance, and profitability.
