We share the list of webinars that took place throughout 2020

• On February 1, Andrés Quincke (INIA-Uruguay) gave the webinar Fertilization in pastures. Its objective was to disseminate a web tool to adjust pasture phosphorus fertilization.
• On February 19, Andrés Quincke (INIA-Uruguay) presented the APP seminar phosphate fertilization of pastures, whose objective was to disseminate web tools to adjust the phosphorus fertilization of pastures.
• On May 26, Dr. Bruno Alves (EMBRAPA-Brazil) held the seminar Carbon sequestration in soils. The objective of the exhibition was to train the technical teams of the eight countries participating in the project on how to measure carbon stocks and evaluate their changes over time according to the methodologies established by the IPCC.
• On July 1, 3 and 17, Dr. Fernando Lattanzi (INIA-Uruguay) gave the seminar Nutritional status of pastures in Uruguay and management of nitrogen fertilization. Its objective was to diagnose the nutritional status of pastures in Uruguay and to disseminate web tools to adjust pasture phosphorus fertilization and make adjustments to nitrogen fertilization. The seminar on day 1 was aimed at CREA Ganaderos advisors and producers, on the 3rd to CONAPROLE technicians and on July 17 to members of an evaluation network.
• On July 7, Dr. Fernando Lattanzi (INIA-Uruguay) presented the training on Biological Nitrogen Fixation. The objective of the exhibition was to train the technical teams of the eight countries participating in the project on the main concepts related to biological nitrogen fixation and how the natural abundance of ¹⁵N technique is carried out.
• On August 3, Dr. Alejandro Costantini (INTA-Argentina) carried out the training Emissões de gases de effeito a non-agricultural stove through the Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro. The objective of the exhibition was to train on the basic concepts related to greenhouse gases and climate change, and on greenhouse gases emitted from the agricultural sector.
• On August 3, Ing. Agr. Gabriela Pérez (FAUBA-Argentina) presented the seminar Gases de effeito stove na produção de carne: aplicações práticas.
