Envision change as a ripple effect, reverberating outwards to affect various interconnected domains. The impact can be substantial, especially if the starting point is a central element like nitrogen, where a shift in practices can lead to benefits across multiple areas, suggests University of Saskatchewan researcher Kate Congreves.

Reducing GHGS From Dairy Farming
CanN2ONet collaborates with the Ontario Living Labs research site in Fergus, Ontario, one of three CanN2ONet benchmark sites in the province. At this field site, researchers are evaluating how best management practices can help reduce nitrous oxide emissions from agricultural systems.

University of Manitoba soil ecologist Mario Tenuta leads the Clearwater, Manitoba research site. The small white boxes on the tower are the air intakes. They suck in air – all day and every day – and deliver it through a small aluminum-lined tube to the laser measuring tool inside the data collection hub.
