Livestock Traceability in Canada - Is it do-able?
6 Replies

Do you think the Federal Provincial Territorial Ministers (Canada) commitment at the FPT meeting this summer of having a full traceability system for Livestock in place by 2011 is achievable?

Hi Sara, my name is Kait and I work for Canada's Fruit & Veg Tech X-Change.  We are hosting our inaugural outdoor horticulture event this coming July 12, 13, 14  2012.  Part of our event is going to include a "Farm Female XPO" as we felt this was an area we greatly overlooked last year.  I see that you hold Professional Women in Agriculture gatherings and I was wondering if you could send me some more information about this.  If you could respond via email to info@fruitveg.ca it would be greatly appreciated.  You also seem like a very influential woman in agriculture and I would love to connect with you at some point and discuss some of my ideas for the woman's expo and get the thoughts and suggestions for women in the business.  Thanking you in advance, kind regards.  Kait Schuster

Carryover Seed Explained: Certified, Tested, and More Valuable Than Ever

From bumper crops to insurance against bad harvests, carryover seed plays a bigger role than many people realize. Carryover seed is becoming a more visible part of the Alberta seed landscape, but according to seed growers and testing experts, its presence is nothing new. In fact, having carryover seed on hand often presents a strategic advantage for both seed growers and farmers. The Alberta-British Columbia Seed Growers’ Association (ABCSG) has offered a carryover listing service since around 2009, before the Canadian Seed Growers’ Association (CSGA) added carryover capability to the national Seed Locator in 2018. For Greg Stamp of Stamp Seeds, carryover seed — certified seed that simply wasn’t sold the year it was produced — is a natural part of running a pedigreed seed business. Predicting dryland yields isn’t exact, he says, and some years he produces more seed than expected. “Sometimes we expect 20 bushels of durum and get 40 or 50,” he says. “That becomes two years’ worth.
