Event Description

2011 Upcoming Agriwebinars – Canadian Farm Business Management Council

28/11/2011 Traceability - What You Need to Know & What's Happening

Businesses along the entire food chain strive hard to brand themselves as providing safe, healthy food. At the same time, public health, food safety, animal welfare, and sustainability are combining to drive the demand for food traceability as a critical tool. Transparency about the origins of food and having systems that can prove a food's origins are becoming key policy imperatives and are already mandatory in many countries.
Brian Sterling Chief Executive Officer, OnTrace Agri-food Traceability

Practical tips that will help producers be more efficient and effective in their daily management ("to do" list, "stop doing" lists, setting goals...)

05/12/2011 Winning Web Sites That Mean Business
Today a website isn’t just important, it’s mandatory for a successful farm marketer. A well-designed site can make a big difference in cash flow whether you use it to sell products or promote on-farm events. What elements make a website work? Find out from farm marketing expert Jane Eckert, who has literally studied hundred’s of farm websites. She’ll teach you how to use photographs, links and make a user-friendly home page that will make guests return to your site again and again.

12/12/2011 Looking Forward through a Rearview Mirror: Planning for the future
It is my thesis that if we separate the “business of farming” from real-estate ownership, a logical stepping stone is created. It is interesting that as soon as a child is born the most important lesson taught is that land ownership is sacred. Then 30 years later parents are puzzled why not only the farm child but all their children want to own land...and even worse theirs!
Merle Good, Alberta Agriculture, Food and Rural Development

Purchasing the right bull can quickly move your beef herd toward your production goals. However, buying the right bull doesn’t start on sale day; it begins months in advance.

Purchasing the right bull can quickly move your beef herd toward your production goals. However, buying the right bull doesn’t start on sale day; it begins months in advance. #1: Establish Short- and Long-Term Breeding Goals Before looking at bulls, identify what you want your herd to achieve in the short and long-term. Your breeding program should align with your operation’s resources, management style and future plans. For example, knowing the traits that you want your calves to have (e.g. lighter birth weight, better growth, carcass quality, maternal traits), will better prepare you to match those goals with the genetic potential offered by available bulls. #2: Determine the Traits to Focus On Based on your goals, determine which traits to select for. As an example, if you are breeding first calf heifers, selecting bulls with higher calving ease is essential. In contrast, if you are not retaining replacement females and sell all calves after backgrounding, consider focusing on
