Jessica,

 

Good morning.  We are working with an industry, in Polk County, that is trying to find a beneficial use of 4,000 cubic yards of dried lime slurry.  I was hoping you would have a contact in the Department of Agriculture that may be of some help.

 

Thanks,

Whole-farm insurance webinar


Home | Newsletter Archives

ATTRA - National Sustainable Agriculture Information Service

AGR-Lite: Insuring Small- to Medium-Sized Operations

September 6 webinar will explore options; focused on Midwest farms

The National Center for Appropriate Technology (NCAT) will offer a webinar on Thursday, September 6, to explain crop-insurance options such as Adjusted Gross Revenue Lite (AGR-Lite) — a unique, federally subsidized crop-insurance product that holds great promise to serve the needs of small- to medium-sized diverse, specialty crop, organic, and direct-market farmers.

At the end of a summer of record-breaking heat, severe drought, and even flooding, farmers may be wondering how to better protect their farms. The webinar, "Understanding Crop Insurance Options for Small- to Medium-Scale Diversified Farms," will explain how AGR-Lite works and provide a brief overview of crop-insurance limitations for highly diverse farms; it also will demonstrate NCAT’s new AGR-Lite Wizard assessment tool. This tool assists farmers and agricultural professionals in evaluating the usefulness of whole-farm revenue insurance.

While most insurance products are tied to a specific crop or commodity, AGR-Lite is based on whole-farm revenue and allows farmers who grow several specialty crops, or diverse crops and livestock products, to insure their production based on their historic revenue.

In addition to AGR-Lite, the webinar will also provide an overview of the Non-Insured Crop Disaster Assistance Program (NAP) and individual specialty crop policies. AGR-Lite is not available in Iowa, although it is available in most other Midwestern states. NAP and individual specialty crop policies are available in all states.

The webinar will feature regionally appropriate examples from the Midwest, although it will be beneficial for anyone interested in AGR-Lite and other insurance options.

There will be ample time for attendees to ask questions. The webinar is funded by the USDA Risk Management Agency.

NCAT Agricultural Economist Jeff Schahczenski will be the webinar presenter.

Date: Thursday, September 6

Time: Noon Eastern Standard Time

Wright's nutrush Workday and Canoe Trip Bonus!

Wright’s nutrush (Scleria lacustris) was recently added to FLEPPC’s Category I invasive plant list.  Here’s your chance to see this plant up close and learn about different control methods.  This invader has been located in a gorgeous marsh at the Disney Wilderness Preserve and we need your help controlling it.  We will be in ankle to knee deep water, so wear something you don’t mind getting wet.  Long sleeves and gardening gloves are highly recommended as this plant is a meanie and has no problem fighting back!  But we can go canoeing afterwards too!

 

Scleria lacustris is an annual plant and is already starting to go to seed, so I would like to get it removed ASAP.  The ideal date is Wednesday September 12th, but we could also have the workday on Tuesday September 18th.  Please email me if you are interested and let me know which date(s) you are available.

 

We will meet at the Disney Wilderness Preserve office at 8:30 a.m. on and should be back to the office by 1 p.m. at the latest.  Those interested can join us for a canoe trip around Lake Russell, one of the last lakes in central Florida with a completely undeveloped shoreline.  The trip takes approximately 2 hours and is limited to the first 20 respondents.  Please wear long pants and sleeves, a hat, closed toe shoes and bring a water bottle, sun screen, bug spray, snacks and a lunch if you plan on staying for the canoe trip.  Contact Debi Tharp with any questions.  Office address and contact information are located below.

 

Thanks a lot and have a great day!

Editor’s Note: The Plant Management Network (PMN) has polled its users to better serve their needs. Respondents wanted better awareness of PMN’s many offerings. Our monthly Spotlight will help achieve this.

Resource Spotlight: PMN’s Partner Extension Search

Most of America’s land-grant universities have partnered with PMN to promote quality, science-based crop management information. PMN’s free Partner Extension Search furthers this goal. Sometimes it’s difficult for growers and crop consultants to navigate extension sites. PMN’s Extension Search offers a clean, easy to use keyword search from one place. By typing a few keywords and hitting the ‘search’ button, users can find quality crop management information from across the nation or an individual state. The Extension Search targets tens of thousands of pages of information, covering nearly every crop grown in the United States. Try this resource. View PMN’s full list of resources.

Latest Focus on Potato Webcast: Using Pathogen Detection Kits for Diagnostics

 

Misdiagnosing a disease can be very costly if unnecessary or ineffective control measures are made. There are many real-life examples where proper identification of a disease was not made until after avoidable inputs were applied, management changed, or rumors started. This month’s Focus on Potato presentation by Dr. Nora Olsen at the University of Idaho offers practitioners an overview of the various diagnostic options available so they can more clearly identify disease pressures affecting their fields and make more informed management decisions.

Focus on Soybean Launches Phosphorous Fertility Webcast

 

This latest Focus on Soybean presentation by Dr. Robert Mullen at PotashCorp discusses the importance of adequate phosphorus nutrition for soybean production. Specific points of discussion include phosphorus behavior in soil, how soil test critical levels are established, and what phosphorus does for the crop. The goal is provide growers and consultants an understanding of how to make decisions when it comes to supplying phosphorus for soybean production.
