Event Description

Take one or both of 2a or 2b  - NEW AgriSuite: Field Management – Organic Amendment Nutrient Balance (Agronomic). Facilitator: Chris Brown, Field Crops Sustainability Specialist, OMAFRA  

What is that organic amendment worth to your production system and through the crop rotation on your farm? OMAFRA has recently upgraded AgriSuite to include the ability to take in your manure analysis (or when not available -use a pre-existing organic amendment database) to calculate this value and project the economics around it! Join Christine Brown (Field Crops Sustainability Specialist, OMAFRA) as she walks you through these new features in the field management tool. Get ready to work through this tool once you are trained, so sharpen those digital pencils and bring your own data to the table ~ let’s get started!

Andrew Coyne: Canada’s Productivity Crisis is Now a National Security Issue

At the CrossRoads Crop Conference, the Globe and Mail columnist said slowing growth, aging demographics, and weak competition leave Canada dangerously exposed in an era of economic coercion. Andrew Coyne didn’t open with small talk. Speaking today at the CrossRoads Crop Conference in Edmonton, the Globe and Mail columnist said Canada is facing the “most serious economic and security crisis” of his lifetime — one that combines long-running domestic weaknesses with a rapidly shifting global order. Coyne framed the moment as a collision between two trends: Canada’s slowing economic growth and aging population, and a world where trade and security commitments are less reliable than Canadians have assumed. In that environment, he argued, Canada’s historic advantage — living next to the world’s largest economy and military — can quickly become a vulnerability. A foundational assumption is cracking Coyne’s core message was that Canada has built decades of policy — economic, fiscal, defence

Building a Herd That Works: EPDs, Genomics and Smart Genetic Investments

Julia and Robert operate a commercial cow-calf operation with a strong focus on making informed, strategic management and breeding decisions. They market all calves at weaning and have a goal to increase weaning weights by 20 pounds without sacrificing calving ease, which remains a key priority for both cow health and labour requirements. This year, they are looking to purchase one or two new herd sires. One afternoon at the kitchen table, coffee in hand, they were flipping through the latest bull sale catalogues full of glossy photos when they heard footsteps on the front porch. It was their trusted neighbour and fellow commercial cow-calf producer, Andy. “Bull shopping?” Andy commented when he saw the catalogues. “Trying to,” Julia replied with a puzzled glance, tapping a page covered in circled bull images. “Mind if I take a look?” asked Andy. Julia slid the catalogue over. “Sure. See what you think of our selections so far.” Andy was silent for a moment as he flipped through

Canola and Biofuels: Share Your Perspective

Canola oil is an excellent feedstock for biofuel production, offering farmers an additional domestic market opportunity for their canola crop. The national and provincial canola grower associations have come together to deepen our understanding of canola farmers’ views and knowledge about the connections between canola and biofuels. We’re interested in learning how farmers see the opportunities and challenges related to this growing market. Your feedback will help our organizations better inform policy discussions and strengthen our engagement with you. The survey takes about five minutes to complete, and all responses are anonymous. There are no right or wrong answers – we simply want to hear your perspective. Thank you for your participation! This survey is conducted in partnership with Canadian Canola Growers Association, BC Grain Producers, Alberta Canola, SaskOilseeds, Manitoba Canola Growers Association, and Ontario Canola Growers Association.
