Event Description

With the first ever virtual 2021 Ontario Ag Conference (OAgC21) just around the corner, don’t miss the chance to share this valuable learning opportunity with your customers. The teams from Ontario’s premier crops conferences have “Come Together” to develop a virtual conference platform and program that offers tremendous benefits to anyone involved in crop agriculture across the province. With the inability to meet together face to face this winter, the OAgC21 team has left no stone unturned to bring great speakers, sponsors, content and opportunities to Ontario’s crop farmers and all who support them.

Easy to use platform will make “on-line learning” effortless for registrants as they navigate from session to session, visit tradeshow sponsors or join the newly added 7 “TEC Talk Tuesdays” starting January 12th. Help us to ensure that people take the opportunity to participate in this event and encourage them to join us starting January 6 & 7th for 3 months of great learning, all from the comfort of their own home.

The Ontario Agricultural Conference is a combined effort of The Southwest Agricultural Conference, Golden Horseshoe and Heartland SCIAs and Eastern Ontario Crop Conferences. AS COVID-19 continues to create many unique challenges including our ability to meet in person we are committed to keeping our agricultural community updated with current and timely information. The combined team is very excited to bring you an incredible line up of speakers, presenting 40 sessions, providing attendees with interactive sessions full of the tremendous knowledge and experience they have come to expect.

K-State watershed specialists, livestock experts emphasize importance of water sources

Water is likely the most important nutrient in raising livestock, and yet Kansas State University Extension cow-calf specialist Jason Warner says it is often the most overlooked. “A big reason why many of our pastures and rangelands go underutilized is simply due to a lack of access to high-quality, abundant water resources,” Warner said. Warner said many beef operations in Kansas and similar regions do not have abundant groundwater or access to rural water systems. Instead, they rely heavily on surface water sources to supply their cow-calf herds, stocker cattle and replacement heifers. Springs, ponds and other natural sources such as creeks and streams are a critical part of the ranch’s bottom line and long-term sustainability. “If we think about a ranch or an operating unit that has underdeveloped water resources versus one that has developed and high quality and abundant watering resources, that can certainly add a tremendous amount of value to that operation just in and of itse
