Looking at rotational grazing, and supplemental planting of forage species are two other priorities for the @LivingLabEP activities at the bison paddock! #AgLivingLab

Stop 2 - the Bison paddock
Mae Elsinger is using grazing cages to assess forage composition and quality #forages #AgLivingLab #bison @AAFC_Canada

That is how the water and planting/biodiversity activities connect. Some of the water from the tile drainage has been routed to the riparian area to help naturally filter the water #AgLivingLab
English
The group has also been working on enhancing riparian areas as well by transplanting willow cuttings #AgLivingLab

Stop 1 (pt 2) Mae Elsinger taught us about the pollinator species planting she’s been doing at this site alongside the water work #AgLivingLab
English
The research group at @LivingLabEP also looks at the rate of water runoff through tile vs over the soil surface

Stop 1 - Steve Sager talked about the many project activities going on at this site. They include water retention work, pollinator planting and so much more. Steve looks at tile drainage and examines the nutrients in the water runoff

Living labs across the country are creating innovative research-based solutions that can be applied to real-world challenges on the farm. Every day, at @KroekerFarms in #Winnipeg, they put these technologies & practices to the test. A good example of sustainability in action!

The zone management project considers things like differences in crop yield, soil organic carbon, and other soil properties to gain a better understanding of the impacts of field variability to develop beneficial management practices for different zones #AgLivingLab #LivingLabEP
English
#LivingLabEP also looks at the benefits of zone management to address variability in landscapes and how creating a management plan that consider different zones can be beneficial #AgLivingLab
