The network for agriculture in Ontario, Canada

Arrived back in Australia from Canada, to be met with the cost of estimated 9.90$ extra a week for carbon tax.  In reality try 20.50$ . The filth that believe the tax payer has a bottomless pocket. Have come up with a way of making money out of thin air.  To tax the public for the pollution that China produces, as 85 percent of our products, if not more, are produced there.  Farmers operating dairy farms, or any animal live stock that requires eletricity Hydro for you cunooks.  Have seen an extra 5,000$ per month to their bills as a farmer has found, after planting 4,000 trees in an attempt to of set and gain carbon credits.  And to add to the terror Smart meter is coming. 

 

But Canada you don't have to worry, yet.    Because all those farms that sign up to Carbon credit scheme by off setting companies like GE,GM, Ford or any other large polluting multi national will find they don't own the land, they farm on.  And must comply with the rules under that contract.  Eg not to disturb the soil as it affects the micro carbon collecting bugs or plants.

 

For those farms in the north of Alberta that now have suffed the same fatight as the 4 Queensland and New South Wales farms 6 months ago.  These animals that call themselfs politians are coming for your farm one at a time.  An of course in a nice way.

CWRC and CBRC join forces to transform wheat and barley breeding

The Canadian Wheat Research Coalition (CWRC) Canadian Barley Research Coalition (CBRC) have entered a formal, strategic partnership to transform the Canadian wheat and barley breeding system. “Our two organizations have a history of working together on behalf of western Canadian farmers, so this formal partnership was a natural fit,” says CWRC chair Jocelyn Velestuk, who farms near Broadview, SK. “Many farmers grow both wheat and barley, and the breeding systems for both crops face similar challenges that we can now address collaboratively.” This new agreement represents the CBRC’s official entrance into ongoing discussions between the CWRC and Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) that originated from the CWRC’s review of, and subsequent report on, the Canadian wheat breeding innovation system. The review was designed to identify and address potential risks and opportunities in the Canadian system, ensuring it continues to generate elite varieties for farmers across the country.

Together, the 2025-26 Beef Researcher Mentorship Program mentors bring a diverse range of experiences from across Canada’s beef industry, from cattle production and veterinary medicine to research, marketing, animal health and industry leadership. By sharing their on-the-ground perspectives, th
