The New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets and the NYS Soil and Water Conservation Committee administer the AEM framework and associated funding programs at the state-level and Soil and Water Conservation Districts lead AEM at the local-level with farmers and conservation partners. Altogether, over a third of all farms in the state participate in AEM.
Through 2019, the annual Agricultural Environmental Management (AEM) Award was jointly sponsored by the Department, the American Agriculturalist Magazine, and the Empire State Potato Growers. Award winners were chosen from nominees submitted by county Soil and Water Conservation Districts from across the State with AEM as key element of their farm mission and daily operation.
A complete set of Tier 1 and 2 worksheets are linked on the AEM Resource Page. AEM Tiers 1 and 2 are designed to inventory current farm activities and interests and document environmental stewardship and opportunities for improvement. AEM Tiers 1 and 2 are guided by farm-tested, science-based worksheets, based on conversations between farmers and conservation planners, and take a whole farm view.
The Agricultural and Environmental Management Program links farmers with local conservation professionals to identify existing environmental stewardship, address natural resource concerns, and enhance farm viability. For qualifying farms, participation in AEM may also help promote farm products through New York State Grown & Certified.

On Saturday 10th September 2022, the winners of the fifth annual Write on Art prize were announced at a buzzing award ceremony in London. Aimed at students in the last four years of school, the award is jointly run by Art UK and the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art (PMC) where the ceremony took place.
Several of the shortlisted essays dealt with topical issues, connecting older works with our contemporary situation, such as the first prize winning Year 12/13 essay by Tavishi Gupta on Laura Knight's 1913 oil painting Self Portrait aka The Model. Sutapa Biswas added: 'All of the submissions were heartening in their optimism and thoughtful engagement not only with the subjects of the paintings in question but their relevance in the context of our current challenging times. Brava!'
The Year 10/11 shortlist was one of the strongest yet, showing there is much hope for the future of arts writing, as Arike Oke explains: 'The range of works selected by the young people was surprising, and inspiring. The insights and writing displayed vulnerability, sincerity and clear analytical thinking. All of the shortlisted entries were great in their own right, and instilled in me confidence for the future of art, audiences for art, and thinking about art.'

These days, children's and youth literature is coming under pressure in many countries; it is drawn into controversial discourses about values; and in some places, as is currently the case in the USA, it is even the subject of an open culture war. It cannot be taken for granted that literature is freely accessible and available to young people everywhere. Thus children's literature has also become an indicator of the openness of society.
This makes it all the more important for the International Youth Library/IYL to once again present the independent international book recommendation list The White Ravens, the latest edition of which we are launching today. The catalogue with 200 outstanding new publications from the international children's book market reflects the conviction that children's and youth literature as a messenger of universal values, such as tolerance and intercultural understanding, is of great importance and deserves special attention.
The team, with the support of children's literature experts from all over the world, focuses on titles that might be of particular interest to an international audience because of their literary and pictorial quality and/or the topics they address.
"To convey the nighttime ambience, Marianne Ferrer uses harmonious tones of dark blue, green, and red against a black background. In the end, the girl has not yet achieved the desired clarity of thought, akin to a neatly folded origami. But her tangled thoughts have now been corralled in her sketch of a house, allowing her to finally fall asleep."
"In this empathic middle-grade novel, award-winning author Jodi Carmichael, who herself has ADHD, lets her vivacious protagonist shine without downplaying the hardships of having a differently wired brain that makes every school day a struggle."
The winners were selected by a panel of judges, including urbanist, entrepreneur, and director of The City, Zahira Asmal; co-founder of independent UK-based development company Arrant Land, Duncan Blackmore; and Jorge Prez-Jaramillo, architect and urban planner, based in Medelln.
Since 1896, The Architectural Review has scoured the globe for architecture that challenges and inspires. Buildings old and new are chosen as prisms through which arguments and broader narratives are constructed. In their fearless storytelling, independent critical voices explore the forces that shape the homes, cities and places we inhabit.
Mehmas is carrying all before him in Europe, and, as a sire of quick stock that generally appreciate fast ground, it has been no surprise to see him gain appreciation in North America, where he is the sire of leading Californian filly Going Global in addition to the stakes fillies Quatroelle and Tetragonal.
There is also an Australian flavour to the catalogue in the presence of 167, a Churchill filly out of the G1-performing Australian mare Milanova, a sister to Holy Roman Emperor who has already produced a G3 winner in Pretty Perfect.
PORTO, Portugal -- Mikel Arteta believes his Arsenal side are detached from the club's historical catalogue of UEFA Champions League round-of-16 exits, but another one beckons if they cannot embrace the occasion better than this.
The Gunners will back themselves to overturn a 1-0 deficit from Wednesday's first-leg defeat against Porto, but to do so they must rediscover the poise and purpose that made them heavy favourites before kickoff.
Before Galeno's sublime 94th-minute winner, Arsenal were unusually inhibited, bereft of the dynamic football that has come to define them: they failed to register a shot on target in a match for the first time since January 2022, against Nottingham Forest in an FA Cup third-round defeat which left Arteta incandescent with rage. He was more considered here, safe in the knowledge they have a chance to rescue the situation in three weeks.
