A great big THANK YOU to all who helped make the 2011 X-Change a great success.

Canada's Fruit & Veg Tech X-Change (CFVTX) is an outdoor, not-for-profit, horticultural trade show for commercial fruit and veg producers and their families. Encompassing: Row Crop, Orchard, Vineyard, Greenhouse and tobacco sectors.

This progressive sector is showcased under real farm conditions, all in one location on Thursday July 12, Friday July 13, and Saturday July 14 2012, right here in Norfolk County – just 10 mins south of the “HORT HWY#3” - Simcoe, Ontario.

A staggering 242 exhibitors came from across North America to engage in the inaugural Hort showcase. For a first time event, we were extremely pleased with the showmanship and enthusiasm put into product and service displays. 2,200 qualified producer families came through the gates this year, with the intention to do business.

We have assembled a top notch steering committee of 30+ exhibitors and producers. We heard loud and clear that the dates of the X-Change had to fall between planting and harvest for the majority of fruit and veg crops in this province, hence the new dates of: July 12th,13th,14th 2012.

We are located at 1195 Front Road St Williams. Postal code: ON N0E 1P0.

An open fall may offer Manitoba farmers a chance to turn marginal acres into opportunity

For Manitoba farmers looking for ways to get more from every acre, late fall can be the right time to tackle fields that consistently struggle to produce a profitable crop. Flood prone, weedy, saline areas can quietly eat into farm profitability year after year. Rather than continuing to apply crop inputs and fight with wet, saline acres that simply don’t pay, farmers can consider perennial forages as a longer-term solution. Ducks Unlimited Canada (DUC) is encouraging farmers to take advantage of the fall window for dormant seeding as part of its Marginal Areas Program. “Some acres aren’t as well suited to growing annual crops year after year,” says Daphne Appleyard, a marginal areas specialist with DUC. “Fall is a good opportunity to start changing that equation by establishing perennial forages. Perennials reduce the need for annual crop inputs, provide ground cover to reduce erosion and weed pressure, and deep roots use moisture more efficiently than annual crops while mitigatin

Nine companies join program aimed at advancing Canadian food supply chain

Canada’s opportunity to strengthen its economy and domestic food security by making more from what it grows is increasing, and companies from coast to coast are stepping up to help the country reach its full potential.

Today, U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke L. Rollins announced a historic $3.3 billion loan to Oglethorpe Power Corporation to help finance its Smarr Combined-Cycle electric generating facility in Monroe County, Georgia, during a visit to the construction site.
