AALP Proves Valuable, New Study Suggests

Ontario’s Advanced Agricultural Leadership Program (AALP) delivers an average 25 percent social investment, according to a study released by the George Morris Centre.

The study entitled “Social and Economic Return on Investment of the Advanced Agricultural Leadership Program” found - networking, strategic thinking and enhanced ways to improve competitiveness were some of the top benefits of AALP.

The study interviewed graduates of the winter of 2012/2013 program. The measure for return on investment was done by examining the employment and volunteer activities of graduates.

“Attaching a value to leadership training is a tremendous way to demonstrate value to past participants, organizations, sponsors and future participants. Class 15 is gearing up, and we are able to confirm the ongoing value of this 30-year program,” said Rob Black, chief executive officer of the Rural Ontario Institute.

The full report on the study can be read on the Rural Ontario Institute website at: www.ruralontarioinstitute.ca.

Video: The Unveiling Of A Brand New Tractor! Brand New Caseih Magnum!!

Case IH invited us out to an event in Racine, Wisconsin, and it turned out to be an absolute trip of a lifetime! CaseIH is celebrating the 250th anniversary in style!! Very cool to be apart of this event!

We kicked things off with an incredible deep-dive into the rich history of Case IH and the legendary Magnum tractor lineup. From there, we got exclusive, behind-the-scenes access to the official Case IH testing facility to see how these massive machines are pushed to their absolute limits.

But the real highlight came after the tour. We were transported to a location for the main event: the grand unveiling of a brand-new, completely custom, 1-of-1 tractor named "Providence."

A massive thank you to Case IH for inviting us out and letting us bring you guys along for the ride. This was an experience we won't ever forget!

Drop a comment below: What do you think of the "Providence" Magnum?!
