Surplus farm houses

Over the last year and a half in Perth County we have had the surplus farm house issue visited twice. Most recently about a month ago county council decide to turn the motion down for the second time. The issue we divide people easier than picking your favorite hockey team. I don't believe there is a right or wrong answer but my problem is if it has been defeated twice why in after only a month of being defeated is it back on the table. This almost feels like a federal election. Democercy has to be considered some where along the line perhaps we have to have the best 3 out of 5. In tough economic times does our elected people have nothing better to do. It is like the dog that has chased a cat up the tree and won't move until it comes down(alot of wasted energy and resources for no reason). Anyway just wanting to hear other thoughts on the severance of surplus farm houses. Yes or No

I have several farm houses that I rent out and can see the merits of both sides of this argument. I do not think I want to sell mine . I would like to rent them out to some one that would take care of them. I am not interested in making a lot of money from them I would just like to breakeven, and have my building maintained.As renters come and go the the building seems to decline. I can not believe there are not people out there that would fulfill this goal, but they seem to be few and far between in my experience. It would be nice to be able to be to participate in some program for the distressed or under privileged that would help ensure payment and find the right tenants.

Not so happy landlord

PIC genetics reduce North American pork producers’ greenhouse gas emissions by 7.5%

North American pork producers using PIC genetics now have peer-reviewed, ISO-conformant research to show that genetic improvement efforts are making a quantifiable impact – at a time when protein sustainability has never been more important.  PIC worked with Dr. Greg Thoma, a global environmental modeling expert, to complete a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) studying the impact of pig breeding on the environmental sustainability of North American pig production.1 An LCA analyzes the effect a product has on the environment over its lifetime; in this case, monitoring the environmental impact of live swine production through to slaughter. GHG reductions with PIC genetics The North American LCA and a prior European LCA are among the first of their kind to quantify the environmental impact of swine genetic improvement and to receive ISO conformance. Key LCA findings: The North American LCA showed that full program PIC genetics (sire + dam) emit 7.5% less greenhouse gases than industry avera

Corteva separating into two entities

Corteva says it will separate its seed and pesticide businesses into separate listed companies, as the agrichemicals firm seeks to sharpen its strategic focus. The separation will allow each company to set specific capital allocation strategies, respond faster to market shifts and pursue growth opportunities independently. Its shares fell about seven per cent to their lowest in nearly five months.  The stock has fallen more than 14 per cent since the Wall Street Journal reported the company’s spin-off plans last month, as analysts raised concerns about disruption and dilution. The company has estimated added costs from splitting the company, of $80 million-$100 million US. Corteva’s seed business accounted for 57 per cent of its total sales in 2024, with remaining coming from its other segment, which produces herbicides, fungicides, insecticides and seed treatments.

Why Maizex is Bringing Canola to Alberta

Alberta trials are underway as Maizex prepares to offer booking for 2026. If you told me a few years ago that Maizex would be moving into canola, I might’ve called you optimistic. But here we are. After nearly four decades in Canadian agriculture and a strong national footprint in corn and soybean genetics, Maizex Seeds is officially entering the canola market — and yes, Alberta farmers, that means you. This move didn’t happen overnight. It’s been a multi-year process of strategy, scouting, and listening. Listening to farmers. Listening to dealers. And listening to what the canola market still needs — especially in the West. We’re launching our first two Maizex-branded canola hybrids for planting in 2026, and we’re excited to finally talk about it. This isn’t just about entering a new crop category. It’s about bringing a Canadian-owned alternative to the table — one focused on farmer-first service and choice in a market that, frankly, could use more of both. As I’m writing this, I’
