Always interesting to read and hear the internet and coffee shop yield reports, the Ontario crop will likely average 150 or a little less yet its all 200 plus on here....we sure are not seeing those kinds of yields in the Hamilton area, we must be the only ones bringing down those big yields......or more likely the yield monitor yields are doing their usual inflation of what the scales say....

Nine years after near-fatal accident, court rules Napanee farm had duty to warn of hidden bridge hazard

The cab had filled with water. The door was pinned shut. Only an air pocket inside the submerged machine allowed him to breathe. If the water had gotten in, there had to be a way out. Denyes felt around in the darkness, slicing his fingers on broken glass, until he found an escape route through the wreckage. He made his way out and swam to shore. Nearly nine years later, the accident that nearly claimed his life has ended in an Ontario Court of Appeal ruling. In a decision released on May 27, the court found the farm on which the incident took place, Sutton Farms (Nacona) Ltd. in Napanee, liable for more than $423,000 in damages. This ruling overturned an earlier trial decision that had dismissed a lawsuit brought by Deynes’s employer, the agricultural spraying company TCO Agromart Ltd., and its insurer. The court concluded the farm failed to disclose a hidden structural danger beneath a private bridge crossing the Napanee River. “This appeal engages the issue of when and in what

Labor expenses push farmers to automate

Before almond orchards are planted across the Central Valley or apple trees take root in the Pacific Northwest, many of the plants begin their lives at Sierra Gold Nurseries in Yuba City. The Sutter County tree nursery is a one-stop shop, propagating the plants from orchard cuttings and in a tissue culture laboratory, then potting, suckering and budding the trees, and nurturing them for more than a year before shipping them to growers across the country. The labor-intensive operation, which produces millions of trees each year, requires more than 300 employees during its peak season, with labor making up about 60% of the nursery’s input costs. Josh Puckett, vice president of operations at Sierra Gold, said rising labor costs combined with a depressed farm economy in recent years threatened the nursery’s profitability. To adapt, the company invested in new technologies to reduce manual labor and make its operation more efficient. “We’ve implemented a lot more automation,” Puckett sa

Two J’can farm workers die in Canada crash

Two Jamaican farm workers travelling together, Rupert Bell and David Lindsay, died in a traffic crash in Canada about 5:00 pm Thursday. “The death of these two workers is a painful reminder of the sacrifices many Jamaicans make to provide for their families. Today, two families have lost loved ones, communities have lost valued members, and our country has lost two hard-working citizens,” said Minister of Labour and Social Security Pearnel Charles Jr, who expressed profound sadness at the loss. “Mr Bell and Mr Lindsay dedicated many years of service through the Seasonal Agricultural Workers Programme, helping to support their families and contributing to the agricultural sectors of both Jamaica and Canada. The ministry mourns the loss of Mr Bell and Mr Lindsay and extends heartfelt condolence to their families, friends and fellow workers during this difficult time.” Bell had participated in the Seasonal Agricultural Workers Programme since 2013, while Lindsay had been a participant

Amid Rising Global Economic Pressures, New Report Spotlights the Greenbelt’s Key Role in Provincial Prosperity

At a time of rising economic insecurities and global uncertainties, Greenbelt Foundation’s new economic impact report, authored by Ernst & Young LLP (EY Canada), highlights the regional and provincial economic contribution of sectors supported by the Greenbelt. It reveals that the Greenbelt generates $17 billion in Ontario’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and sustains over 247,000 full-time jobs. The report highlights prevailing economic trends, provides a breakdown of key sectors’ economic contributions, and elevates strategic opportunities enabled by the Greenbelt’s unique strengths and economies.   Key Findings: Greenbelt-dependent economic activity now generates $17B of Ontario’s overall GDP while sustaining 247,000 full-time jobs across primary and secondary sectors. Since the Greenbelt Foundation’s earlier economic impact assessment (2020), the Ontario Greenbelt has seen a 12% increase in province-wide economic contributions, adjusted for inflation, and a 17% increase in employme
