Battlefords Agricultural Society hoping for more members

The Battlefords Agricultural Society is getting ready for its upcoming Annual General Meeting and is putting the call out for new members.

The date for the meeting is still being confirmed but there is plenty of time to sign up to become a member.

“Memberships are on sale right now, if anybody is interested in becoming a member of the ag society,” General manager, Jocelyn Ritchie, said. “If you do come to our annual meeting, you will need to be a member to vote.”

She added that society is always looking for new people to join the board or to get involved with new ideas for projects for the year ahead.

What I’m Checking Behind the Planter This Spring

Video: What I’m Checking Behind the Planter This Spring



This is the first episode of a new behind-the-scenes series on our farm.

Today I’m checking behind the planter looking at planting depth, seed-to-soil contact, and making sure we’re placing seed into moisture, even in a dry spring.

Everything can look good from the cab, but this is where you find out what’s really happening.

We also ran into a prescription issue that slowed us down, which is a good reminder that even when conditions are ideal, the little things still matter.

If you’re planting right now, it’s worth taking a few minutes to check behind your planter.
