Responsible Grain Code of Practice consultation deadline extended

Your opinion is needed on the Responsible Grain Code of Practice. Three more consultation sessions have been added: January 27, 28, and 29, all at 12:00 pm.
 
The Canadian Roundtable for Sustainable Crops has developed the Responsible Grain Code of Practice, a voluntary, science-based code that demonstrates Canadian grain farmers’ care and commitment to the environment.
 
Note that some farmers who have registered for Jan 21 will be asked to switch to one of the new dates due to high numbers.
 
Now that the Code of Practice is developed in draft form, your feedback is needed to ensure the Code is both understandable and adoptable. To receive your invitation to participate in the consultations, please click Register Now and complete the form.

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
