Wheat harvest....

A strange summer indeed..... our wheat harvest was tricky, but given the weather we've has this summer, we should be pleased with our 70 bushel yield.

This makes 2009 a little under our 5 year average.... but certainly not bad at all...

How did others do ?

About 85 bu in the north west area of Huron Cty. Neighbours had anywhere from 40+ up to 80. The further away got up to 100+ (far and few between) but the bulk of the good fields ran just over the 85 bu. My avg - about 80.
Probably be a different story when we get to the soybeans... not good.

Welcoming input on watershed plan

Members of the public are invited to an open house to learn about the development of a Xwulqw’selu (Koksilah) Watershed and Water Sustainability Plan, and provide input to help guide long-term approaches to water supply and ecosystem health in the area. The open house will take place on Wednesday, March 11, 2026, from 3-6 p.m. at The Hub at Cowichan Station, 2375 Koksilah Road in the Cowichan Valley. The B.C. government and Cowichan Tribes are leading the development of the plan, building on several years of engagement with community members, farmers and industry through local advisory tables, such as the Cowichan Tribes Guidance Group and the Community Collaborative Advisory Table. This project has been supported by the Ministry of Water, Land and Resource Stewardship, and the Ministry of Agriculture and Food to gather and analyze information and develop options related to water allocation, watershed restoration priorities and land-use recommendations.

Protect AAFC Research, Not Bureaucracy: Why Farmers Need Smart Fiscal Discipline

As Ottawa looks for savings, industry leaders argue cuts should target administrative overhead — not the public agricultural research that delivers higher yields, stronger varieties and real returns for Canadian farmers. Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada’s (AAFC) plan to close research stations across multiple provinces targets the very infrastructure that underpins Canada’s agricultural competitiveness while leaving the department’s growing administrative overhead largely untouched. No one disputes the need for fiscal discipline. But cutting front-line science that consistently delivers some of the highest returns of any public investment is not fiscal responsibility; it’s short-term thinking. AAFC’s regional research network is Canada’s only coordinated system capable of evaluating new crop genetics and management practices across diverse agro-ecological zones. These sites generate the multi-location, multi-year data that determine whether a new variety actually performs under heat
