Ag Consulting Trainings

About the Project

Through a collaborative agreement with the US EPA, CTIC will provide leadership and technical support to successfully plan, organize, coordinate, evaluate and share information from five workshops held between 2015 and 2020.

These workshops will provide attendees the foundation to target, design, and implement conservation practices for their clients. Practices covered will include in-field nutrient management, drainage water management systems, bioreactors, saturated buffers and more. CTIC will host specific practice summaries and other materials that will help this project’s target audience.

In addition to the US EPA’s assistance, the following partners ensure that these workshops provide value to and are well attended by their membership:

  • Agri Drain Corp.
  • Agricultural Drainage Management Coalition (ADMC)
  • Agricultural Retailers Association (ARA)
  • The American Society of Agronomy and Soil Science Society of America
