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.

Video: Planting Corn with Classic Allis-Chalmers Tractors | Full Field Action

Step into the field for a full day of spring fieldwork as this farm plants corn using classic Allis-Chalmers power near Arcanum, Ohio. In this video, the farm is working ground with an Allis-Chalmers 8050 pulling a Salford field cultivator and Brillion Culti-Packer to prepare the seedbed. Right behind, an Allis-Chalmers 7020 handles planting duties with a 12-row White planter, putting this year’s corn crop in the ground. You’ll see a mix of aerial drone footage and ground-level views capturing all the action, along with a voiceover that dives into the history and legacy of these two Allis-Chalmers tractors. It’s a great look at how reliable, older equipment is still getting the job done during spring planting season. If you enjoy classic farm equipment, corn planting, and real-world field action, this one is for you.
