Join us July 15 at Strassburg Creek Dairy for a manure management field day!

We’ll start the afternoon with a tour of Strassburg's STJERNHOLM SAND SEPARATION SYSTEM. This system separates sand from manure, allowing the farm to reuse the sand for bedding. It reduces the amount of new sand needed, and reduces the amount of solids left in the fertilizer making it easier to apply manure through the 360 Rain unit.

Then, we’ll travel to a field about 5 miles away to see the 360 RAIN in action. The 360 RAIN is an autonomous application system that delivers manure across the field. Strassburg's truck manure to a frac tank at this remote site, then pump it from there to the 360 RAIN for application on a field that doesn’t usually receive manure.

Come learn how these technologies work together across the farm!

🗓️ Wednesday, July 15
📍 Strassburg Creek Dairy LLC - N7339 Regina Road, Wittenberg, WI 54499

🍎 😋 🥤Snacks and refreshments will be provided. Thanks to Foxland LLC!

We hope to see you there!

Wagner Farms is hosting one of several sites collecting data on cereal rye nutrient release and soil test response. 🌱

Cereal rye was collected from another site and placed in a residue bag on a bare area for in-field monitoring and data collection every 15 days. 🗓️ Over a 60-day period, photos, soil samples, and biomass samples will be collected near residue bags containing the cereal rye.

👉 The goal of this project is to better understand when cereal rye releases nutrients, what nutrients are being released, and how soils respond over time. Understanding the nutrient release timing in cover crops helps maximize cover crop benefits and improve nutrient management planning. 💪🌽

This project is being conducted in collaboration with State Agronomist Jamie Patton using adapted and expanded cereal rye residue project protocols based on research conducted by Dan Marzu, UW–Extension Senior Nutrient and Pest Management Outreach Specialist, at the Marshfield Research Station.

We were bummed to cancel the Reichert planting green field day BUT we’re still getting together!

Join us for a Shop Talk at Chris and Jenny Reichert’s where they’ll walk through their approach to planting green, share what’s worked and what hasn’t, and answer your questions in a relaxed setting.

If you’ve been curious about planting green on your farm, this is a great chance to hear first-hand experiences. Bring a lawn chair and come hang out.

Between the Lakes Demo Farm Network is excited to partner with Sheboygan River Progressive Farmers to support this event!
