Special Agriwebinar® Presentations: Success Stories in Farm Business Management

Last year, FMC asked Agriwebinar® users what they wanted to hear in its next upcoming Agriwebinar series, and many of you expressed that you wanted to hear real farmers talk about their real life experiences. In response to this request, FMC featured two webinars in early March 2013 in its series titledSuccess Stories in Farm Business Management. This producer series featured real farmers with real successes showing what can be accomplished and how it can be accomplished. These webinars covered key management tips, what the featured producers have done to get where they are today, and the reasons behind some of the decisions they made.

A special thanks to Phil Keddy from Charles Keddy Farms Ltd and Joas van Oord from Van Oord Holsteins for helping us bring these excellent Agriwebinar presentations to Agriwebinar® viewers across Canada. See below for  links to the presentations.

Hog markets rebound despite ample pork supplies - CME

Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) cattle and hog futures climbed on Tuesday on position squaring between the Christmas and New Year holidays, Reuters reported, citing analysts. CME February live cattle settled 1.500 cents higher at 230.475 cents per pound, and March feeder cattle settled 2.900 cents higher at 344.575 cents per pound. CME benchmark February lean hog futures rose 0.975 cent to 85.450 cents per pound.

Canfax Weekly Article | Report for the week of December 22, 2025

The Western Canadian fed market was a little disappointing given dressed sales in Eastern Canada were $10–20/cwt stronger last week. Last week, the Canfax average fed steer and heifer price closed around $294/cwt live, fully steady with the previous week.

From their lows in late November, Alberta 550-pound steers have rallied $15/cwt, while same-weight heifers
