Event Description

The annual Ontario field crop diagnostic days held at Ridgetown, Elora and Winchester have been a huge success because of the commitment from participants, sponsors, speakers and volunteers. COVID-19 has created many unique challenges and the safety of all those involved is of utmost concern. Although the summer in-field Ridgetown, Elora and Winchester events have been cancelled, the organizing committees have decided to combine SWCDD, Elora Crop Diagnostic Day and Eastern Ontario Crop Diagnostic Day (Winchester) into a new provincial diagnostic video series with support from RealAgriculture and our sponsors.

This Ontario Virtual Diagnostic Days Series will consist of a 1-hour episode every two weeks through October 21, 2020. Each episode will highlight a general field crop agronomic theme and will be available here on RealAgriculture and fieldcropnews.com. Plus, all episodes will be available in our main podcast feed.

Continuing Education Credits
Historically, these in-person diagnostic days have provided some of the best opportunities for Certified Crop Advisors (CCA) to acquire a broad range of Continuing Education Credits (CEU).

REGISTER FOR CEU CREDITS
Certified Crop Advisors will be able to collect 8 CEU by registering for the event. Registration is a requirement so we can process CEU credit requests. A CEU code will be provided at end of each episode.

Registration Fees for CEU Credits:

$100 (includes HST) for 8 CEU credits. A receipt/confirmation email will be provided
GFO Farmer-Members Participate Free

Carryover Seed Explained: Certified, Tested, and More Valuable Than Ever

From bumper crops to insurance against bad harvests, carryover seed plays a bigger role than many people realize. Carryover seed is becoming a more visible part of the Alberta seed landscape, but according to seed growers and testing experts, its presence is nothing new. In fact, having carryover seed on hand often presents a strategic advantage for both seed growers and farmers. The Alberta-British Columbia Seed Growers’ Association (ABCSG) has offered a carryover listing service since around 2009, before the Canadian Seed Growers’ Association (CSGA) added carryover capability to the national Seed Locator in 2018. For Greg Stamp of Stamp Seeds, carryover seed — certified seed that simply wasn’t sold the year it was produced — is a natural part of running a pedigreed seed business. Predicting dryland yields isn’t exact, he says, and some years he produces more seed than expected. “Sometimes we expect 20 bushels of durum and get 40 or 50,” he says. “That becomes two years’ worth.
