Iowa Learning Farms, along with the Rapid Creek Watershed Project and Iowa State University Extension and Outreach, will host a Nutrient Management meeting from 6 to 8:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Morse Community Club, at 2542 Putnam St. N.E., in Iowa City.
ISU Extension and Outreach Field Agronomist Meaghan Anderson and Agricultural Engineer Greg Brenneman will speak about phosphorus management and ISU’s General Guide for Nutrient and Limestone Recommendations for Iowa. They will also discuss interpreting soil test results, the likelihood of monetary returns on different testing soils and implications of fertilizing based on those results. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own soil test results to have them interpreted.
There is no charge to attend, but reservations are suggested to ensure adequate space and food. To register, call Justin Bisinger at 319-337-2322 ext 300, e-mail justin.bisinger@ia.nacdnet.net or go to http://www.jcswcd.org/calendar.
