The 4R Alliance is excited to welcome Melissa Stefun, a graduate student member of the soil quality laboratory at the University of Maryland for a presentation on N fall application on cover crops. Then Sapana Pokhrel, a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Delaware, will be talking about the potential of PSNT in corn nitrogen management in long-term cover cropping systems. Lastly, Brooks York with AgriSompo will talk about market conditions, crop insurance, and future treds the industry might see.
