While completing his Bachelor’s degree at Keuka College he became well-connected with a group of wonderful Chinese classmates. His friendships encouraged him to complete his first Master’s degree at the prestigious “Harvard of China” Tsinghua University in Beijing. Tsinghua shaped his academic focus on the international relations of the Asia-Pacific\, which then led him on to completing a second Master’s degree in London at the famed School of Oriental and African Studies\, attached to the University of London. It was his time studying China-Burma relations that helped him discover Asia’s dynamic regional growth and the opportunity for the Finger Lakes to be represented in China. Now living in Shanghai\, where he is responsible for China operations of FLX International\, Matthew spends his time exploring China\, developing FLX International’s relationships\, and working to discuss the Finger Lakes as much as possible.

SUMMARY:Biochar: Observed Vineyard Impact & Practical Insights for Application
DESCRIPTION:Join Debbie Aller\, PhD\, Extension Associate at Cornell University and program coordinator for the New York Soil Health Initiativeto learn more about biochar\, the impacts observed in vineyards\, and practical insights into its application in perennial systems. \nBiochar is a charcoal-like material produced from organic waste materials through a process called pyrolysis. It is a highly stable carbon rich product that acts as a long-lasting soil amendment with numerous potential agronomic and environmental benefits. Biochar is being used in viticulture globally and has been shown to improve productivity through improved plant and soil health without negatively impacting grape quality or wine flavor. The diversity of biochars\, however\, means it is not a one size fits all product and must be applied to the right soils to address a resource concern. \nThis presentation will provide an overview of biochar\, impacts observed to vineyards in NYS and beyond\, and practical insights into its application in perennial systems. \nClick Here to Register \nThis webinar is free to all New York wineries and growers as well as Members of the Garden State Winegrowers Association.\nThis session is proudly sponsored by American National Insurance.
