Virtual Field Day

Iowa Learning Farms, in partnership with the Iowa Nutrient Research Center, and Conservation Learning Group, is hosting a free virtual field day on January 19 at 1 p.m. CT. Join us for a live discussion about an innovative project led by IIHR-Hydroscience & Engineering’s Matthew Steerter, Assistant Research Scientist, and Keith Schilling, Research Engineer, and collaborators Mike Paustian, Scott County farmer and Andy Craig, Conservation Engineering Lead at Ecosystem Services Exchange, providing technical services for Agri Drain Corp.

The virtual field day offers attendees the opportunity to explore the installation of a new blind inlet in Scott County that will be used for analysis for the next two years and the opportunity to have discussion with the farmer and researchers. A second project site has also been established for data collection on Tom Adam’s farm near Keota and will be discussed during the virtual field day.
