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.

USDA took Trumps comments that China would buy more U.S. soybeans seriously and headline news that the U.S./China trade truce would be extended when Trump/Xi meet in the first week of April was a BIG WIN for soybeans this week! 2026 “Mini” U.S. ethanol boom thanks to 45Z + China’s ban of phosphates from Feb. – August of 2026 will not help lower fertilizer prices anytime soon! 30 mmt of Chinese corn harvest is of poor quality and maybe a technical breakout in wheat futures.

*Apologies! Where we talk about the latest CFTC update as of 10th Feb 2026, managed money funds covered their net short position in canola to the tune of +42,746 week-on-week to flip to net long 145 contracts and not (as we mistakenly said) +90,009 wk/wk to 47,408.
