The RAM Rodeo will feature 10 events throughout Ontario and the CASE IH Ultimate Tour will be hosting 5 events in its second year.

We welcome the Cowboys and Cowgirls from Quebec and the United States to the events and wish them luck through the summer.

There are no shortage of opportunities at each and every one of these events as points and money earned go towards the RAM Championships in Newmarket and will qualify competitors to the Toronto Royal Invitational Rodeo in November 2014. Points will also count towards the Canadian CCA Championships in Regina. The top competitor in the eastern CCA rodeos in Ontario will be awarded one automatic entry in the standard events at the Regina Agribition.

In addition, All RAM Rodeos will feature $1,000.00 added prize money in standard events as well as most Case IH events.

Comment by OntAG Admin on May 14, 2014 at 7:09am: The Milverton Rodeo as the third stop on the 2014 RAM Rodeo Tour. Milverton is a community located in the Township of Perth East in Perth County, Ontario. A village small in numbers but large in heart, Milverton is situated north of Stratford on Perth Road 131, and Northwest of Kitchener-Waterloo. A significant Amish and Mennonite population live near the village, bringing a traditional sense of charm and nostalgia to this community, one nestled in the heartland of Ontario's agricultural bounty. Local roads are shared with horse and buggies and hand-made quilts and wooden furniture can be found in nearby shops which make for an enjoyable shopping experience in the Milverton-Millbank area.

The Milverton Rodeo Committee is busy preparing for the 24th annual Milverton Rodeo and is proud of the fact that they host the longest-consecutively running rodeo in the province. Three local service groups have worked together for almost two and a half decades to ensure the tradition continues: Milverton Agricultural Society, Milverton Lions Club, and the Optimist Club of Mornington. Because of their combined efforts, numerous community projects have come to fruition: in 2003 the outdoor rodeo ring was constructed (voted best rodeo ring on the RAM circuit for the last four seasons) and in 2012 the brand new Milverton Agri Centre was completed, a unique building and the first of its kind in Ontario which is definitely the hub of the 20 acre property. These two important additions to the Fairgrounds only enhance the experience for both the visitor and the competitor alike.

In addition to the two RAM Rodeo performances (Saturday & Sunday at 2 p.m.) and the "legendary” Saturday Night Rodeo Dance, featuring the band Dry County, there are many exciting additions to the line-up. The weekend activities start Friday night at 6 p.m. when the food booth (offering wings) and the refreshment gardens open. In the grassed area, the NEW children’s activities will be taking place and at 7 p.m. the RAM Youth Challenge will commence in the rodeo ring. The Darcy John Band takes the stage at 8 p.m. to play some country-rock and will feature some rising local talent! On Saturday morning from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., the “Rodeo Sidewalk Sales” will take place along Main Street, promising lots of excellent buys for those who are willing to search out the best deals! On Sunday morning from 8 a.m. to noon, treat the family a hearty country breakfast provided by local Swiss families which will satisfy your appetite for good home-cooking and from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. local youth will entertain on the rodeo stage.

Together these events are shaping up to make June 20, 21 & 22 a truly unforgettable weekend in the country. Milverton Rodeo is one tour stop that should not be missed as it exemplifies an entire community coming together for a terrific weekend of fun, family & festivities.

Admission to the Rodeo Grounds is free all weekend and remember to purchase rodeo tickets in advance to save $ 5.00 each. Visit www.milvertonramrodeo.com for all the details!

Canola Industry Encouraged by Outcomes from Energy and Mines Ministers' Conference

Canada’s canola industry welcomes the outcomes of last month’s Energy and Mines Ministers' Conference, particularly the Ministers' commitment to strengthening Canada's energy security and expanding domestic biofuel production. With nearly 1 in 3 acres of canola grown in Canada destined for biofuel markets in Canada, the United States and the European Union, it is encouraging to see the Ministers building on future energy security by supporting the production and use of low-carbon fuels from feedstocks we already grow. The Ministers' reference to increasing Canada's domestic biofuel production toward 60 percent of consumption by 2030, signals the important role that Canadian agriculture will continue to play in meeting the country's energy and climate goals. By the end of 2026, Canada is expected to have the capacity to process approximately 15 million tonnes of canola annually, driven by more than $2 billion in investments in new and expanded crushing facilities across the Prairies.

CPKC ends 2025-2026 crop year setting annual Canadian grain record

Canadian Pacific Kansas City (TSX: CP) (NYSE: CP) (CPKC) said today it has broken its all-time volume record for transporting Canadian grain and grain products by moving 30.66 million metric tonnes (MMT) during the 2025-2026 crop year. This new record annual volume exceeded the previous record set in the 2020–2021 crop year by approximately 72,500 metric tonnes. "Our team of exceptional railroaders reliably delivered the largest Canadian grain crop in history with consistency throughout the crop year," said John Brooks, CPKC Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer. "Our dedication to service excellence, paired with solid execution by our customers and terminal operators, led to a crop year that saw more Canadian grain and grain products move on our network than ever before. This performance illustrates our long-standing commitment to the safe and efficient transportation of Canadian grain." The total volume transported in the 2025-2026 crop year was 11 percent higher t

Don’t Give Up Anything. A Forage Driven Rye with Flexibility and a Real Grain Up-Side.

SU Baresi is an exciting new hybrid rye built for forage production, delivering exceptional biomass, aggressive early growth, and high-quality feed for livestock operations. Designed with cattle producers and mixed farms in mind, it offers outstanding fall and spring vigour, excellent winter hardiness, and strong standability for dependable performance across diverse growing conditions. What sets SU Baresi apart is its flexibility. While it’s purpose-built for forage, it also delivers impressive grain yield potential, giving growers the confidence to take it to grain if conditions or market opportunities change, without sacrificing performance. A combination, often rare among true forage-type ryes. There really isn’t another true forage-type rye out there with this kind of grain upside. A strong fit for cattle producers and mixed farming operations, particularly in Alberta where early, high-quality forage and tonnage are key priorities, SU Baresi fills an important gap in our portf

U.S. Farmland Values Hit New Record High but Gains Slow

U.S. agricultural land values reached another record in 2026, although the pace of appreciation continued to ease, according to the latest annual Land Values Summary and cash rent estimates from the USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service. Released Friday, the report showed the average value of U.S. farm real estate, including land and buildings, increased by $150, or 3.4%, to $4,500 per acre. It marked the sixth consecutive annual increase but the slowest gain since the current upswing began in 2021. Annual growth has steadily moderated from 11.7% in 2022 to 6.7% in 2023, 5% in 2024 and 4.3% in 2025. Despite the slowdown, average farm real estate values are nearly 44% higher than in 2020, according to an American Farm Bureau Federation market intel article on Tuesday. Cropland values rose 3.3%, or $190, to a record $6,020 per acre. Pasture values increased 4.2% to $2,000 per acre. Since 2020, cropland values have climbed 48%, while pasture values are nearly 43% higher.
