The Tempo will cut down your field time and deliver exceptional seed placement. At the Outdoor Farm show, there are two places to see the Tempo in action. Visit our corn plot. Planted May 12th at speeds of 6 - 10.5 mph, Tempo maintained precise depth control and consistent seed placement. The results are remarkable.




The Tempo Planter doing what it does best: fast, precise seed placement.

Join us for a planting demo. Daily in the Southwest demo fields you’ll see how our new seed meter all but eliminates the skips and doubles common to less innovative systems.

Visit our East-Can booth.

You can also see the Tempo 8-row planter at our booth in the middle Machinery Mall, between the first and second lanes. Talk to the Tempo experts, including Gustav Nilsson, Canada Area Sales Manager for Väderstad International. They will be sure to field all of your questions about the Tempo on display.



Speed has evolved.

Depopulation could destabilize food systems

It’s difficult to argue that climate change isn’t the most pressing threat to our agri-food sector. Farmers, processors, distributors, retailers and transporters have all been forced to adapt in real time to extreme weather events, shifting growing seasons and volatile conditions. From droughts to floods to wildfires, climate change has tested the resilience of every link in the food supply chain. Yet, for all the challenges the sector has faced – and will continue to face – due to climate pressures, it has managed to cope reasonably well. Investments in technology, new crop varieties, smarter logistics and infrastructure upgrades have helped absorb many of the shocks. But there is another looming threat – quieter, slower, and far more difficult to reverse – that few in the industry appear prepared for: depopulation. At its core, the food industry is built on one assumption: that there will always be more mouths to feed. Growth in population has long been a proxy for market growth.

Labour shortages create dragnet for agri-food

Canadian agriculture and agri-food consistently punch above their weight. Agriculture and agri-food contribute $111 billion per year – more than $30 million per day – to the Canadian economy, or over six per cent of our GDP. However, there are still more than 16,000 job vacancies on Canadian farms, and this labour crisis is resulting in avoidable financial strain. With that considered, you would think that smoothing out the regulatory red tape – especially on access to labour for farmers – should be highest priority for federal and provincial governments when the shortage is both critical and chronic, proven with many years of data and evidence. When COVID-19 challenged supply chains, action was taken to secure our food supply, but this level of urgency and priority for the sector appears to have come to an end. Producers and workers need new solutions Agriculture is theoretically prioritized in the immigration regulations, but it continues to be squeezed by on all sides. Agriculture
