Event Description

We are excited. We had over 1000 people attend our event this past Friday in Listowel. We are anticipating nearly double that in Norwich this week!

We’ve made an investment in the future of the industry - putting up 2 new buildings during COVID (one with the largest sq footage of all of Premier’s locations), increasing parts and service capacity to 150% compared to the old locations combined, gathering 4 teams into 2 large teams (Listowel – Mount Forest together/Courtland and Simcoe together) to promote better work-life balance for staff from the smaller stores and potential for individuals to specialize and further prefect their skills (longer, deeper bench). We’re celebrating these things, and inviting folks in to check it out.

Food, Door Prizes, Tours, and Kids Activities!

More info on the facilities and the event can be found at: https://www.premierequipment.ca/news/

Festivities start at 3pm, ribbon cutting is at 4pm!

Norwich location is at corner of Maple Dell Rd and Hwy #59, just south of Norwich.

Great Canadian Farm Tour launched by AITC

The Great Canadian Farm Tour is back for its fourth season and, for the first time, it’s taking place in the fall to showcase an entirely different season in Canadian agriculture.

Winter Wheat Variety Yield and Market Share Data – 2024

Manitoba Crop Variety Evaluation Trial Data Winter wheat yield data from the Manitoba Crop Variety Evaluation Trials (MCVET) is in for the 2024 growing season. This data provides farmers with unbiased information regarding regional variety performance, allowing for variety comparison. Data was derived from small plot replicated trails from locations across Manitoba. Fungicides were not applied to these plots; thus, true genetic potential can be evaluated. Although considerable amounts of data are collected from MCVET, the disease ratings are from variety registration data. below summarizes the yield results from the 2024 MCVET data by trial location. The yield results represent 2024 data only, therefore long-term trends should be considered when making variety selection decisions. Previous yield data can be found in past editions of Seed Manitoba. As well, apart from yield, there are other variety characteristics to consider when making variety selection decisions, such as disease, i

Investing in the Future of Agriculture: McDonald’s Canada Awards $40,000 in Scholarships to 4-H Youth

Montana State doctoral student uses AI to help farmers in the field

Artificial intelligence seems to be everywhere these days, from social media apps to the laboratories of Montana State University. Now, thanks in part to a doctoral student in MSU’s Gianforte School of Computing, it’s in the state’s agriculture fields helping farmers take the guesswork out of maximizing crop yields. To a layperson, one field of winter wheat might look just like the one adjacent to it. However, Giorgio Morales, an MSU Ph.D. student from Peru, has the data to show that soil conditions and other variables can change significantly not just from field to field, but also in the span of just 10 meters. Morales is leveraging artificial intelligence to crunch thousands of data points to help farmers maximize their crop yields and profits while potentially lowering the amounts of fertilizers they use. Morales is developing AI methods to determine how combinations and quantities of variables such as soil nutrients, nitrates, humidity and precipitation influence a particular out

Scratching The Surface: What Is Making My Cattle Itchy?

Background: Producers and veterinarians have reported situations where cattle have lost hair and showed signs of being “itchy” even after being treated with a pour-on product (e.g., Ivomec, Dectomax, Cydectin, etc.). The assumption made is that lice are developing resistance to these products. However, some veterinarians who have investigated these cases report that they haven’t found lice in all of these cases. Besides biting and sucking lice, other potential causes of itching include other parasites (e.g., microscopic mites), environmental factors (e.g., barley hull allergy, frost bite, straw mites), nutrition (e.g., vitamin A or zinc deficiencies), and mycotoxins (e.g., ergot, citrinin, T2 toxins). Objectives: The objectives of this study are to: 1. To provide insight into the cause and potential prevention/treatment of itching beef cattle in Western Canada Implications of the Research: This project will determine what factors are most likely contributing to itchy cattle in the
