Supporting B.C. tech strengthens general aviation emergency response

Two B.C. companies are receiving provincial support to deploy clean-energy technology that strengthens backup power reliability for general aviation aircraft in B.C., replacing diesel generators with battery storage to keep critical services, such as wildfire response, medical transport and search and rescue, running during emergencies. With as much as $1 million being provided through B.C.’s Integrated Marketplace, Abbotsford-based Fast Air will deploy a mobile battery and solar power system developed by Richmond-based Holinova at the Abbotsford International Airport. The system is designed to power ground equipment and aircraft charging needs without relying on the electrical grid, providing a cleaner alternative to traditional diesel-powered backup power systems and helping maintain operations during outages or high-demand situations. The project is anticipated to improve charging efficiency, support flexible aircraft movements and enhance operational resilience during periods of

Protein Industries Canada invests in AI technology to boost on-farm productivity and bring new solutions to farmers

Protein Industries Canada is investing in two new artificial intelligence (AI) projects to help Canadian farmers and the value-added agriculture sector improve on-farm productivity with new tools, supporting a stronger, more sustainable and competitive food system. Together, the projects represent a total investment of $4.9 million, including up to $2.2 million from Protein Industries Canada, and will help growers act earlier on disease risk, and improve safety and accuracy in grain storage. “Canadian farmers are increasingly adopting cutting-edge technologies to strengthen productivity, sustainability and global competitiveness,” said the Honourable Mélanie Joly, Minister of Industry and Minister responsible for Canada Economic Development for Quebec Regions. “Through Protein Industries Canada, one of Canada’s global innovation clusters, we are investing in made-in-Canada AI solutions to help producers protect their yields, optimize inventory management and make informed business de

Seed-treatment timing critical

Most seed put into the ground in the Midwest is treated, but the jury is still out as to the most effective use of chemical and biological additives. There’s little doubt that treatments are beneficial but there’s much to be learned. “What’s probably getting more growth is on the inoculants side,” said Connor Sible, a University of Illinois professor who has conducted various research projects on treatments. He said inoculants are increasingly being chosen for aiding plant growth rather than battling pests. “A lot of products added are targeting nutrient availability,” he said. “There’s been a lot of research in the (United) States and internationally – greenhouse studies in very controlled environments.” An extensive study by scientists at REVA University in Bangalore, India, indicates that “seed priming” is a cost-effective strategy for improving plant health and development. The study report compiles information from almost 400 studies worldwide. It shows that biological seed tr

Trail King: Transport solutions for every trailer owner

Replace or refurbish? It’s a question every hauling trailer owner encounters at some point down the road. According to the experts at Trail King Industries, Inc., the right time to evaluate a trailer’s future depends primarily on age, total mileage and usage. While some owners might use their trailer two to three times a week for their own business needs, others are operating a business and may run their trailers every day throughout the year. Trail King Industries, Inc., headquartered in Mitchell, South Dakota, is the leading manufacturer of a complete line of hauling trailers in North America. Since 1974, the company has designed, engineered and manufactured trailers across diverse industries including construction, agriculture, waste and recycling, transportation and specialized hauling.
