Forwarded on behalf of Dr. Zvomuya From: Francis Zvomuya <Francis.Zvomuya(a)umanitoba.ca> Sent: Thursday, September 1, 2022 3:21 PM To: Martha Blouw <Martha.Blouw(a)umanitoba.ca> Subject: Grad Stats Course: SOIL 7250 T02 Non-traditional Quantitative Techniques Hi all, We have a few more spots left. In this applied stats course, students get to work with data from their current thesis research or another study. Those who do not yet have data to work with may work on an analysis plan for their future data, in addition to experimental design and treatment layout of their planned thesis research. Students are expected to have a good background in statistics, preferably at the graduate level. Typically, students who take this course will have taken ANSC 7500 Methodology in Agricultural and Food Sciences, or an equivalent, although this in not a requirement. Knowledge of SAS will be an asset, but not a requirement. Attached is an outline from Fall 2021. This may change to reflect the specific needs of students registered for the course. If you have any questions, send me an email. Thanks, Francis Francis Zvomuya, Ph.D. Professor and Head Dept. of Soil Science 362 Ellis Building [cid:image002.jpg@01D8BE16.E6F2CF20]

FW: Weekend waterer- Buller Greenhouse
by Emily Wolverton 28 Jul '22

________________________________ From: Jo-Anne Joyce <Jo-Anne.Joyce(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:Jo-Anne.Joyce@umanitoba.ca>> Sent: July 26, 2022 4:43 PM To: Cathy Bay <Cathy.Bay(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:Cathy.Bay@umanitoba.ca>> Subject: RE: Weekend waterer- Buller Greenhouse Hi, Cathy. Here's a more cohesive summary of the position(s): Position: This is an unposted student position. Hours: 4 hours every Sat. or Sun. (or both days every other weekend, alternating with another waterer), Wages: My best guess is a starting wage of $16.89+ (this is for a Tech. 1, Step 1). The exact classification and wage will be determined by the Faculty of Science HR people and will depend on your experience and previous employment/seniority at the UofM or AESES union. Tasks: watering and pest control (using water, insecticidal soap, insect predators) at Buller GH and two daily inspections at CTC (Crop Technology Centre) which is our research greenhouse. The inspection is done via an app or a physical checksheet, and you would receive training in the skills you need. Experience with a variety of plants and pests is an asset! Requirements: * Experience with growing/maintaining plants is required. * Summer availability is important. We can accommodate a couple of weekends off (everyone needs a holiday!), but need whoever we hire to be committed and responsible for weekends, some STATs and occasional holiday coverage during summer (usually a day here and there if you are available during the week). * Knowledge of pests and how to deal with them is an asset. * Experience with greenhouse systems and maintenance of old buildings is an asset, but not required. Please let me know if you're interested. If you think this might be a good fit for you, but want to know more, we could meet in-person or on Zoom. Feel free to pass along my contact info if you know anyone else who might be qualified and available. My full contact info is below. Thanks, Cathy. Jo-Anne Jo-Anne Joyce she/her Controlled Environments Technician | UM Faculty of Science 206 Crop Technology Centre (204) 474-9799 office/greenhouse (204) 801-6137 cell The University of Manitoba campuses are located on original lands of Anishinaabeg, Cree, Oji-Cree, Dakota, Inuit, and Dene peoples, and on the homeland of the Métis Nation. From: Jo-Anne Joyce Sent: July 26, 2022 1:39 PM To: Cathy Bay <Cathy.Bay(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:Cathy.Bay@umanitoba.ca>> Subject: Weekend waterer- Buller Greenhouse Hi, Cathy. Thanks for offering to share with Jacqueline. Jo-Anne Do you have (or know of) a grad student interested in a weekend waterer position at the Buller Greenhouse? 4 hours every Sat. or Sun. (or alternate weekends with another waterer), watering and pest control at Buller GH and two inspections at CTC. Summer availability is important. We can accommodate a couple of weekends off, but need whoever we hire to be committed and responsible for weekends, some STATs and occasional holiday coverage during summer. Experience with growing/maintaining plants is required. Most of the grad students I've talked to are interested but are gone for a month or more each summer doing field work, which is difficult to work around. Our current (and only) weekend technician will be leaving us in December so we'll ultimately hire two people. Appreciate it.

This Quick Think Report compares the 2021 data with 2016 and 2011 data, providing analysis on land use and the adoption of sustainable farming practices. The colourful maps contained in this report allow readers to quickly visualize agricultural trends by census division (small parcels in each province) and to compare provincial and regional land use or sustainable practices.

These long-term trends highlight some of the challenges and opportunities facing policymakers. · Despite decreasing total farm area, land in crops is on the rise, while pasture and grassland are decreasing. · Changes in land use have a long-term impact on Canadian agriculture. Pasture and grassland are important to Canada’s livestock industry but also sequester and store carbon and protect biodiversity. · Census data also reinforces agriculture’s long-term commitment to using sustainable farming practices. · While the census does not tell us why farmers are adopting these practices, policymakers should consider the significant progress already achieved when developing policies to encourage sustainable agricultural practices.

Les pâturages et les prairies sont importants pour l'industrie de l'élevage du Canada mais séquestrent également du carbone et protègent la biodiversité. · Les données du recensement renforcent également l'engagement à long terme de l'agriculture à utiliser des pratiques agricoles durables. · Bien que le recensement ne nous dise pas pourquoi les agriculteurs adoptent ces pratiques, les décideurs devraient tenir compte des progrès importants déjà réalisés lorsqu'ils élaborent des politiques visant à encourager les pratiques agricoles durables.

Registration for Fall 22 & Winter 23
by Martha Blouw 14 Jul '22

14 Jul '22

Hi all, Registration for Fall and Winter terms opens July 21. Before you can register yourself, you have to complete the appropriate registration approval form - attached. Please return the signed form to me and I'll remove the hold that prevents you from registering without having your courses approved. If your progress report was submitted after June 1 you will likely still have a progress report hold on your record that will also prevent you from registering. You'll have to keep checking for this hold to be removed. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Best regards, Martha [cid:image001.png@01D7B920.A0DFC2F0] Martha Blouw, Academic Advisor Department of Plant Science │ Department of Soil Science 226 Agriculture Building University of Manitoba │Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, R3T 2N2 204-474-8223
