This webinar will discuss some of the implications of solar siting on farmland and how we can support renewable energy development while protecting farmland.

This webinar will provide an in-depth look into the inner workings of the tool and how Extension specialists and farmers are using the tool to make decisions to optimize varieties and yields, and minimize labor costs.

This webinar will provide an in-depth look into how some Extension specialists and farmers are using the tool to make very precise decisions for irrigation management in processing vegetables - including looking at the physiology of drought stress in critical stages, how the tool works in detail, and examples of crops grown with irrigation or rain-fed fields.
