Sneak Peek Pictures: The Tribine New Machinery Concept Combination of a combine and a 1000 bushel grain cart. What do you think of the idea?

An innovative combination combine and grain cart called the Tribine is the
result of Indiana's Ben Dillons's idea and persistence over 12 years of work in
his farm shop.

The Tribine is a combine and grain cart in one articulated
unit that offers the first game changing new harvester architecture to come out
since self-propelled combines launched in the 1940s. Dillon’s modified AGCO
Combine moves the grain tank from the top of the machine to the rear, allowing
for a much larger hopper to be included.

The Tribine will be making its
world debut at the Ag Connect Expo that runs Jan. 29 to 31 in Kansas City. The
potential final commercial cost of the Tribine has not yet been determined, but
it does have the potential to fundamentally change the harvesting
market.

What does everyone think of the idea?

I like the way the machine is built and I personally think it has been designed to accept huge headers, just no talk of capacity yet from them

New rules boost water storage and conservation

New and expanded Water Act exemptions will increase water availability, improve conservation, support agricultural production and help protect communities from future emergencies. Currently, many dugouts are sized too small to capture available water because of a 2,500 cubic metre exemption limit. Effective immediately, farmers and ranchers can fill their dugouts up to 7,500 cubic metres – triple the previous limit – provided the water is used for agricultural purposes. This change helps protect them from future droughts and supports strong agricultural operations. “Albertans asked for practical improvements to make more water available, and we’re delivering. These changes make it easier for farmers, businesses and communities to access and store water. It’s good for communities, the environment and the economy.” Grant Hunter, Minister of Environment and Protected Areas “Reliable access to water is essential for Alberta’s farmers and ranchers, especially as they manage drought ris

Calf Health Management — What Does the Science Say?

Sometimes two research studies will ask a similar question and get different results. That doesn’t mean that one is right and the other is wrong, or that it’s a coin toss, or that research is pointless – it just means that details and context are important. If we want to know whether a particular management practice helps prevent scours in beef calves, large-scale studies that measure signs of scours, treatment and recovery rates in beef calves are more helpful than studies that compare rectal temperatures or white blood cell numbers in a few dairy calves. This is where “systematic reviews” are helpful. A systematic review clearly defines what kind of existing studies will help answer a specific question. Then it finds all the published studies that meet those criteria, reviews them, and identifies what they all agree on. Systematic reviews are extremely helpful when trying to make recommendations to real-life producers. Claire Windeyer and a team of veterinary researchers from the U
