Manitoba Crop Report

In this week's crop report, Manitoba Agriculture says saturated soils and waterlogged fields are common in the southwest region from Brandon northward.
 
Fusarium risk maps indicate extreme risk for FHB development in cereals across much of the province.
 
Hay and forage yields have been below normal to date, while rains are expected to improve hay and pasture regrowth for a second cut in most of the province.
 
Widespread spraying for grasshoppers is ongoing. Armyworms are noted in fall rye, spring cereals, and perennial rye grass. Insecticide applications are ongoing.

Video: Decoding Pig Performance With AI And Transcriptomics - Dr. Maria Walsh

The Swine it Podcast Show, Dr. Maria Walsh, Chief Operating Officer at Biofractal, explains how transcriptomics and AI are helping swine producers better understand the gap between genetic potential and commercial performance. Dr. Walsh discusses metabolic efficiency, disease resilience, PRRS challenges, and practical on-farm biological insights using blood samples and AI-powered analysis. She also explains how nutrition, health, and production data can work together to improve decision-making. Listen now on all major platforms!

"Gene expression data provides biological insight into how pigs respond to nutrition, stress, and health challenges before visible production losses occur."
