Ada, MN — Nitrogen management continues to receive a lot of attention from farmers and the ag industry as a whole. Between the high prices experienced over the past few years and environmental issues, there is a lot to consider when making N fertilizer decisions. Building on the popular Nitrogen Smart program, University of Minnesota Extension is offering a whole slate of Advanced Nitrogen Smart courses this winter.

Heather Dufault, Norman County Extension Educator, says they’ll be taking a Deep Dive into the 4 R’s of Nitrogen Management during a program at the Ada Events Center on February 16th as well as the annual Private Pesticide Applicator Training that same day.

As usual, there is no cost to attend thanks to the support of Minnesota Corn Growers. Pre-registration is not required .The detailed schedule including meeting times and locations can be found at: z.umn.edu/NitrogenSmart
