There is concern about the impact of pesticides on pollinating insects, and new state and federal regulations around pesticide use and pollinators. But is it possible to go hard on pests and still be soft on pollinators? This presentation will have an easy-to-apply set of rules to help you judge how to apply pesticides with minimal impact to pollinators. You will leave this workshop being able to judge the risk of a pesticide treatment to pollinators from information on the pesticide label and using PNW 591 - "How to Reduce Been Poisoning from Pesticides" (as well as the accompanying free and handy new mobile app) and take practical steps for reducing this risk, while still keeping pests under control.

Alternative soil amendments include fertilizers, biostimulants, soil conditioners and inoculants. Alternative amendments are derived from various sources including animal byproducts and manure; plant, seaweed and algae substrates; and rock powders or granules. Choosing the proper alternative amendment or inoculant can be a frustrating process. Product information can vary as much as the products themselves. In this presentation I will answer these three questions: Which product(s) do you choose for the benefits you want? Does the source matter? What are the target and non-target potential benefits and detriments? By the end of this session you will have a template for choosing and sourcing the proper alternative soil amendments for your customer’s agricultural crop production needs. CEUs: CCA-1 S&W

Thinking about maco- and micro-nutrients differently is our primary driver in new product development. For many years, macro- and micro-nutrients have been utilized as singular elements to aid in plant health and development. While these concepts are foundational, the time for taking a deeper dive is upon us. Implementing focus on impacting plant processes such as photosynthetic rate, abiotic and biotic stress mitigation, nitrogen use efficiency, and many others are just some of the ways we can by innovate in this industry. As we look into 2020 and beyond, new product development and implementation will be a critical component of our industry. Some of this can be achieved through unique nutrient combinations, others will be accomplished through biological assistance and newly discovered chemistries. As agronomists, we should move away from looking at plant nutrients as commodities and instead start thinking of them as unique tools to aid in plant growth and development. CEUs: CCA-1 NM

Do your customers irrigate their crops? Have you taken a water sample to assess the quality of the irrigation water? Do you know what to look for when interpreting a water sample report? This session will provide you with the key information you need to help you understand and evaluate irrigation water quality. Appropriate use of good quality irrigation water can increase crop yield and quality, even in the Willamette Valley. Irrigation water quality includes the water pH as well as the specific ions that are found in the irrigation water. Irrigation water quality is important for all types of irrigation systems but it is especially important in low-volume irrigation systems such as drip and micro-sprinklers. In this session Dr. Petrie will discuss how to interpret an irrigation water analysis, focusing on pH, bicarbonate, boron, carbonate, chloride, nitrate, salts, and sodium in irrigation water and how these constituents can affect soil characteristics and crop yield.

Do your customers have sufficient calcium (Ca) in their soil? Do you consider Ca when developing a nutrient management plan for your customers? Calcium is a key driver of both soil and crop health which in turn help to determine crop yield and quality. This presentation will focus on the effects of Ca nutrition on crop health. Plant diseases include any factor that causes the impairment of the normal state of a plant that interrupts or modifies it vital functions. Examples include infectious diseases caused by bacteria, fungi, viruses, or nematodes and non-infectious diseases such as physiological disorders or environmental stresses. Good Ca nutrition plays a key role in helping crops minimize the adverse effects of both infectious and non-infectious diseases. This presentation will show examples of how Ca suppresses the adverse effects of pathogenic bacteria and fungi on crops, reduces physiological disorders in crops, and helps crops deal with a wide range of environmental stresses such as heat, cold, drought, salts, and sodicity.

This presentation is an overview of the biological organisms present in soil, with an emphasis on the diversity and composition of bacterial and fungal communities. The role of microorganisms and important nutrient cycling processes with be discussed with particular emphasis on how theses processes are influenced by microbial diversity and composition. This background will lead into a short, historical perspective of the topic of soil health, followed by a closer examination of how biological measurements fit into the assessment of soil health. The presentation will conclude with a summary of initial results from some on-going soil health projects in Oregon. CEUs: CCA-1 S&W
