New USask infrastructure to bolster agricultural research

Located on the USask Saskatoon campus, the Harrington Plant Growth Facility and the Soil Science Field Facility will provide capacity to expand research programs and enhance training opportunities for students in the College of Agriculture and Bioresources and the Crop Development Centre (CDC) at USask. The project will also include a renovation to a portion of the Crop Science Field Lab at USask to provide additional workspace for the CDC. Construction is underway and is expected to be completed in July 2026. “We are grateful to all of our partners and government supporters who have contributed to this important infrastructure project,” said USask President and Vice-Chancellor Peter Stoicheff. “These new facilities will be instrumental in advancing critical agricultural research and will set the stage for addressing global challenges as we aim to be the university the world needs.” Named after USask alumnus Dr. James Bishop Harrington (PhD), a member of USask’s Class of 1920 (BSA),

Students learn about the technologies used in precision agriculture (satellite imagery, global positioning systems, etc.) to measure and manage variability in crop production to increase both yield and sustainability. A summer job at her local Co-op Agro Centre inspired Ward to add the certificate onto her agronomy diploma program. “This summer position is where I first used a digital scouting app to make field scouting reports,” said Ward. “I realized how useful digital agronomy is to agronomists and growers.” Ward utilized Quantum Geographic Information System (QGIS) software in the lab portion of the certific
