Farmers Reminded To Monitor Canola Storage

The Canola Council of Canada had some advice for farmers last week at Manitoba Ag Days.
 
Agronomy Specialist Angela Brackenreed took part in the canola program held last Tuesday.
 
"For storage, which is really the most important thing right now because there's a lot of canola on farm, the main message is nothing new, but we need to really monitor those bins and make sure that everything is okay," she said. "We invest so much in this crop and really went through a lot to try and get it off the field and in to the bin. We don't want to see anything happen to it."

Spring Planting Prep Just Got Serious… We NEED This!

Video: Spring Planting Prep Just Got Serious… We NEED This!

Getting closer to planting season means one thing… it’s time to get EVERYTHING ready.

Today didn’t go exactly as planned—we thought we’d be hauling potatoes again, but instead we spent the day digging equipment out of the cellar, hooking up the grain drill, and getting tractors ready to roll. With wheat planting just around the corner, every piece of equipment matters.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a normal day without a few problems… dead batteries, hydraulic issues, and a truck tire that absolutely refused to cooperate. We tried everything—jump packs, bead bazooka, ratchet straps… and eventually had to bring out the “big guns” just to get things moving again.

But that’s farm life—adapt, fix, and keep moving forward.

We’re getting close to go-time. Wheat seed is coming soon, and planting season is right around the corner
