The Nebraska School Activities Association has announced updated guidelines for fan attendance at winter sports postseason events.&nbsp; These guidelines take effect on February 12, 2021.&nbsp;&nbsp;

As the winter regular season draws to a close, the NSAA calls upon member schools to host sub-districts and districts for the NSAA. In most activities, the team with the highest seed earns the right to host these events. In other activities, member schools volunteer to host.&nbsp; The health and safety of students, staff, and local communities remain the priority of the NSAA.&nbsp; The NSAA is implementing the following requirements for host schools of all NSAA winter sub-district and district contests:

• Active participants are permitted to wear face coverings during competition, but not required.

• Coaches and non-active participants are required to wear face coverings.

• Spectators are required to wear face coverings at all times.

• Attendance is restricted to 75% of occupancy unless local health departments or host schools are more restrictive.

• The host school may establish additional requirements. Any additional requirements implemented by the host school must be the same for all participants, officials, and spectators.

All participating schools and spectators are expected to adhere to these requirements.

In addition,&nbsp; to advance in the winter postseason a team/individual must participate in their state qualifying contest(s).&nbsp; If an NSAA member school is unable to participate due to COVID-19,&nbsp; sub-district, district final and state championship contests will not be postponed or canceled.

The NSAA has great appreciation for all its member schools and their tireless efforts to provide opportunities for learning and participation in NSAA activities. Communication, flexibility, and patience will be key in supporting our high school student participants as they pursue an NSAA State Championship this winter.&nbsp; Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Farm operators and agronomists are invited to attend the Nebraska On-Farm Research Network research results update meeting Feb. 26 at Alliance.

Nebraska farmers conducted over 100 on-farm research studies in 2020, and this meeting is an opportunity to learn from these farmers and network with other innovative producers.

The meeting will run from 8-11:30 a.m. at Knight Museum &amp; Sandhills Center, 908 Yellowstone Ave. 

Check-in begins at 7:30 a.m. Light food and refreshments will be available.

There is no cost to attend, but&nbsp;pre-registration is required. Seating is limited, so early registration is encouraged. 

Visit&nbsp;<a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__sable.madmimi.com_c_15075-3Fid-3D24368.481.1.09758484498f83159d901224c70a1359&amp;d=DwMFaQ&amp;c=Cu5g146wZdoqVuKpTNsYHeFX_rg6kWhlkLF8Eft-wwo&amp;r=Pb_mG92bCZ0hkvKKgiXntQ&amp;m=tlogz-hLcLI2zhgeQ-jv4WPHNStNxSYi9EjpUAtVLlQ&amp;s=JNyitQZOiC9vcMMyTHWrUxSIdpyNaO12hcXR9mjXZTk&amp;e=" target="_blank">https://go.unl.edu/2021onfarmresearch</a>&nbsp;for registration, details, and program updates. For those who prefer not to attend in person, an online option is also available in the registration process. For those registering for the online option, the results meeting will be very informative on the statewide information, but the local research talks will not be available.

The Alliance meeting is one of a series of meetings across Nebraska, where crop production-related information from over 100 on-farm research projects conducted by farmers in partnership with University of Nebraska faculty will be shared with producers. These research projects cover products, practices, and new technologies that impact farm productivity and profitability.

Local research projects to be discussed at Alliance will include: dry edible bean direct harvest population studies, dry edible bean inoculant study, best practices for direct harvest, and a multi-year overview of dry bean population data. An update on soil fertility research in the Panhandle will b e given by Bijesh Maharjan, soil and nutrient management specialist at the Panhandle Research and Extension Center.

In addition, the Alliance session will feature statewide presentations from Nebraska Extension speakers on these topics:

The Nebraska On-Farm Research Network is a statewide, on-farm research program that addresses critical farmer questions about production, profitability and natural resources. Growers take an active role in the on-farm research project sponsored by Nebraska Extension in partnership with the Nebraska Corn Growers Association, the Nebraska Corn Board, the Nebraska Soybean Checkoff, and the Nebraska Dry Bean Commission. To learn more about the network and how to participate, visit&nbsp;<a href="https://cropwatch.unl.edu/farmresearch" target="_blank">https://cropwatch.unl.edu/farmresearch</a>.
