Down in Mankato today at the Nutrient Management Conference! Dan Kaiser from @UMNNutrientMgmt is talking about economics of phosphorus. Cool data! #mnag@UMNswac@UMNExt
I'm up at the Sugarbeet Research and Education Board Reporting Session I Fargo! @LPeaseUMN is talking about strip till and #covercrops in beet systems. Next up I'll be talking about turning #manure into sugar! #mnag@UMNNutrientMgmt@UMNExt

“ManureDB provides real, up-to-date information that reflects current manure handling and storage practices,” said @ManureProf. " Since we will continue to add data over time, we will be able to track trends that we have not had access to in the past.” https://t.co/3SkvreeWgu
I'm in Mankato today training County Feedlot Officers. We're doing the training across two sites, so my counterpart @ChryseisModd is in Saint Cloud w/another group. We're sharing presentations over Zoom, though, so that we don't both have to do all of them. Kind of fun! @UMNExt
We are pleased to announce that our manuscript "ManureDB: Aggregation of U.S. Manure Nutrient Data" was recently published in the Journal of the ASABE (@ASABEorg). DOI link: https://t.co/iIgVQFC1rN
Do you like my new Dutch friends? 🐄 🤩 The #manure from these cows is being used for energy production and is then turned into dried compost. A very cool manure processing system in the Netherlands! Seen on one of the tours for #RAMIRAN2025.
Just landed in the Netherlands and I'm getting my first glimpse of Dutch agriculture out my train window! I'm excited to learn about #manure management here at the #RAMIRAN2025 conference and represent @UMNExt, @UMNews, @UMNswac!
We have some exciting updates to share about #ManureDB this fall and will be sending out our periodic email newsletter soon. Sign up here to get on the email list: https://t.co/VFr1U7TCgy

Down at @MN_Arboretum today for the @UMNExt Crops Team meeting. We heard about some of the corn agronomy research going on as well as outreach activities at the Farm at the Arb.
@mjanders1 My team is always willing to get their hands dirty 🤪 Seems like folks that work w/ @FliesFacility are, too! But seriously, the pilot work was cool. There was more variability in seed germination w/BSFL present in manure than w/o, so maybe more work is needed to tweak the system!
Can black soldier fly larvae eat up weed seeds in #manure?! Our pilot study found "probably not" for Palmer Amaranth, though a larger trial might be needed https://t.co/PvkTT1ccqo
Congrats to the team that came up w/ this wild idea with me! @UMNswac@UMN_AgroPlant@FliesFacility
Today is the last day at the @UMNExt All-Extension Conference in Duluth! The @UMNmanure team enjoyed networking, celebrating our awardees and the amazing work they do, and learning more about how to communicate Extension's value to #MNag.
My colleague, Erin Cortus, an essential part of the @UMNExt#manure team, just won the Dean's Distinguished Award for Extension Faculty! #UMNproud to work with her to support #MNag research.
