KAP Hosts Mental Health Webinar

A webinar on mental health was hosted Friday by Keystone Agricultural Producers (KAP).

 

Kim Hyndman-Moffat works for Canadian Suicide Prevention Services.

 

"COVID-19 has placed a lot of pressure on the cattle industry, it disrupted the supply chain, resulting in the backlog that we're all hearing about. Lower cattle prices, so there's a lot of folks concerned about that. I've heard different ones talking about the difficulties recruiting Temporary Foreign Workers because of COVID-19. Conditions that were dry to begin with, and then they turned to overland flooding over a course of a couple of days, that's set back a lot of producers too."

 

She says farming is one of most stressful jobs out there.

Video: White Mold in Winter Canola | Timing, Treatment & Taking Control | Pioneer Agronomy

White mold can be one of the most damaging diseases in winter canola, but with the right approach, it doesn’t have to be.

In this video, Pioneer field agronomist Greg Pfeffer breaks down what to watch for, when to act, and how to stay ahead of infection. From early spring green-up to the critical 25% flowering stage, learn why timing is everything and how a preventative mindset can protect your yield.

This video also discusses fungicide strategies, including why multiple modes of action like Group 3, 7, and 11 offer the strongest defense. If you’re growing canola or considering it, this is your practical guide to smarter disease control in the field.
