Crop School Moves To Online Format

The province's Crop Diagnostic School is moving to an online format this year.
 
Anastasia Kubinec is Manager of Crop Industry Development with Manitoba Agriculture.
 
"We still have people in the field doing things but it's all recorded," she said. "Instead of folks having to worry about getting a sunburn, they can watch at their leisure at home. It's not where you have to go through all the content in one day, how we've set it up this year, people actually have a month once they get in. It opened July 7th and it closes August 7th."
 
The event normally takes place at the University of Manitoba research site in Carman.

In this CEOs of the Industry – International Edition, we sit down with Michael Agerley, Partner at IQinAbox, to explore how data is reshaping the future of pig production.

After more than 20 years as a veterinarian, Michael shares his unique perspective on the shift from hands-on animal care to data-driven decision making across the pork value chain.

We dive into:

• How better data is improving real on-farm decisions

• The biggest opportunities still untapped in pig production

• How Europe is leading (and where it’s still lagging) in tech adoption

• The role of AI and smart systems in the next 5–10 years

• Why trust, leadership, and practical application matter more than ever

This conversation bridges veterinary insight, technology, and real-world farming, offering a clear look at where the industry is headed—and what it will take to get there.
