The title of the webinar is \"Managing Nitrogen After Another Great Year\" and he will share results of the  \n2018 nitrogen rate trials performed throughout the state. IFCA's Dan Schaefer, Jason Solberg and John Pike worked with Dr. Nafziger to implement nearly 50 trials in 2018. The results are interesting and in many ways different from last year, so tune in. We will offer 1 CEU in Nutrient Management. The webinar will also be recorded and posted at [www.ifca.com](www.ifca.com) if you can't make it but want to listen later. IFCA would like to thank GROWMARK for helping to host the webinar.

With regard to applying anhydrous ammonia in the fall, we continue to urge patience until soil temperatures fall to 50 degrees and the soil temps are not likely to rebound from those levels in any kind of significant way. Normally the calendar date for this to occur, on average, is around November 1. Last year it was after November 1 before soil temps fell to 50 degrees and this year it is looking to occur much earlier.  \nWe know that our members are keenly aware of the stewardship objectives of the fertilizer industry, so we know over the next week everyone will be looking at what everyone else is doing. IFCA's advice is to use your best professional judgement--we all know what","cbCaiefGJn04qhh6","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiefGJn04qhh6","pdf",141306,"English","# CCA Conference and Ag Masters\n# CCA Exam Registration Open\n# Sustainability Exam Registration Incentive\n# CEUs Update\n# October 19 Nitrogen Webinar\n# Fall Nitrogen Guidelines from IFCA","[{\"question\":\"When and where will the CCA Conference and Ag Masters be held?\",\"answer\":\"It will be held Dec. 12–13 at the Crowne Plaza in Springfield.
