Upcoming Webinars

Maximizing solar’s positive benefits for farmers and rural communities and minimizing the negative impacts on farm viability and farmland will require proactive policymaking. State and local governments are primarily responsible for the land use and permitting decisions that shape the future of their communities. This webinar will focus on ways that state and local governments can protect farmland, farm viability, rural economies, and agricultural land access while accelerating the development of solar to address climate change, highlighting recommendations recently released by AFT (linked below). This webinar will be recorded and both posted to AFT’s website, farmland.org/solar, and shared with all registrants. Specifically, the webinar will cover recommendations that: 1) Empower communities to define and steer solar development to preferred sites, like the built environment and contaminated and marginal land, to prevent the conversion of land well-suited for farming out of production, 2) Require minimum standards for developers to follow that will safeguard soil health and productivity during construction, operation, and decommissioning, and preserve future water access and rights when siting solar on farmland, 3) Expand development of agrivoltaic projects (the pairing of solar energy generation with agricultural production) through research, demonstrations, incentives, and support, and 4) Advance equity and farm viability by promoting distributed solar and protecting low-income ratepayers from potential energy cost increases.

A metagenome is a sequencing sample of a bulk microbial community, providing a genetic snapshot of the entire microbiome sampled. Metagenomics offers a comprehensive genetic overview of microbial communities, without the limitations of culture-based methods. The introduction of the shotgun method of metagenomics has added the ability to quantify the phylogenetic and functional roles of microbes without primer bias. As sequencing becomes more affordable, shotgun metagenomics is becoming an increasingly popular method for assessing microbiomes.This webinar will offer a brief introduction to metagenomics and discuss various concepts and methods used in modern metagenomics. Specifically, we will explore topics such as using microbial composition as an indicator of ecosystem state, using functional genes as biosensors, and the insights that can be gleaned from genomic structure.
