SUMMARY:1 Day Advanced Grazing Systems Workshop with Kelly Sidoryk
DESCRIPTION:Missed our other Advanced Grazing Systems Workshop Series in Dawson Creek and Fort St John?  Get the whole series in one day with Kelly Sidoryk.\nLocation: Northern Lights College\, Fort St. John\n\nTime: 10am – 4pm\, Wednesday February 22nd\, 2023 \nCost: Free for PRFA Members; $50 for non-members. If you are not a member please consider becoming one (memberships are $50-75 and available online). \n\n\nAdvanced Grazing Systems is a training course offered through the Canadian Forage and Grasslands Association website (CFGA). \nThe PRFA is providing this Workshop to help (1) walk producers through the Advanced Grazing Systems Training and (2) build their Rotational Grazing Plan.\n\nBoth of these are required to apply for On Farm Climate Action Fund (OFCAF) funding for rotational grazing that is dispersed by the Canadian Forage and Grasslands Association (CFGA).  However\, participants do not need to apply for funding to take this workshop.\nIt will also be great for folks who just want to (a) learn more about rotational grazing or (b) take the time to finally get their grazing plan down on paper (or computer) and have something in-hand rather than just an idea in their head.\n\nIf you have access to a laptop please bring one.  If you don’t\, no worries\, we will work with paper copies. \n  \nBACKGROUND INFORMATION – On Farm Climate Action Fund (OFCAF)\nOn Farm Climate Action Fund (OFCAF) is a federal fund that was announced in Feb 2022.  It will offer cost-share funding for three project streams: (1) nitrogen management\, (2) cover cropping and (3) rotational grazing. Other activities\, such as outreach\, education and training are also supported. \n\n\n\nCFGA was selected as a recipient organization to distribute rotational grazing OFCAF funding in the provinces of BC\, AB\, SK and QC.\nCFGA will be distributing the OFCAF rotational grazing funding continuously for producers to apply on.    In order to apply producers must complete the Advanced Grazing Systems training and a Rotational Grazing Plan.\nBC Investment Agriculture (BCIA) was also selected as a recipient organization to distribute (1) nitrogen management\, (2) cover cropping and (3) rotational grazing OFCAF funding.  BCIA has designated the BC Climate Agri-Solutions Fund (BCCAF) to deliver the OFCAF funding.  Applications closed mid Oct for 2022 and will open in June 2023 and September 2023.
