Video: Harvest Sample Program Webinar 2026

Discover the Harvest Sample Program — a free, voluntary way to get unofficial grade and quality results for your crops. Watch the latest discussion from our recorded webinar with the Canadian Grain Commission to learn how to submit samples, receive your results online, and leverage these insights for your marketing plan. ?We covered important submission deadlines, the types of analyses you’ll receive, and how the results can inform your sales - and the broader Canadian grain sector. Additional information about our Grade School event presented by the Canadian Grain Commission was discussed, providing you with more opportunities to learn about grades, dockage and so much more! Grade School 2026 will be hosted this November in Humboldt and Swift Current.
