Sask Ag Hall of Fame 2020 Induction Postponed

Like many events, COVID-19 resulted in the postponement of the 2020 Saskatchewan Agricultural Hall of Fame induction ceremony.
 
Chairman Reed Andrew says the event was to be held on Saturday, April 18th.
 
“We haven’t chosen another date, I guess we’re waiting to see how this all plays out. You know, it may be in the summer, it may be in the fall. It's just a matter of when. This gives us the option to do those things right now we’re legislated not to do them, and we choose not to expose people anyway. So, it's sad, it's the softest induction but it will happen.”
 
This year's inductees include Adele Buettner, John Feige, Jack Hay, Eileen and William Lamont, the Honourable Gerry Ritz and Ted Serhienko.
 
The inductees' portraits will hang in the Agricultural Hall of Fame at Saskatoon's Western Development Museum.

Video: Planting Corn with Classic Allis-Chalmers Tractors | Full Field Action

Step into the field for a full day of spring fieldwork as this farm plants corn using classic Allis-Chalmers power near Arcanum, Ohio. In this video, the farm is working ground with an Allis-Chalmers 8050 pulling a Salford field cultivator and Brillion Culti-Packer to prepare the seedbed. Right behind, an Allis-Chalmers 7020 handles planting duties with a 12-row White planter, putting this year’s corn crop in the ground. You’ll see a mix of aerial drone footage and ground-level views capturing all the action, along with a voiceover that dives into the history and legacy of these two Allis-Chalmers tractors. It’s a great look at how reliable, older equipment is still getting the job done during spring planting season. If you enjoy classic farm equipment, corn planting, and real-world field action, this one is for you.
