At yesterday's WCI Field Day, we learned that scouting canola diseases isn’t just good agronomy — it’s profit protection. Knowing what to look for (and when) can save your yield, says Jason Casselman of @canolacouncil. hubs.li/Q03yrJRV0

Alberta's growing season is a tale of two provinces. Central & south are bouncing back with rain and solid crop ratings. But up north? Dry soils, heat stress, and gophers are threatening yields. hubs.ly/Q03y3Q590

Big changes for Alberta farmers: Bill 44 is now law, giving you more flexibility—and more rules—on manure, compost & digestate use. Clearer regs, more organic options, and a green light for biogas by-products. Details 👉 hubs.li/Q03xCPXf0

Successful farms have one thing in common: smart financing. @ATBFinancial's Rob Jensen says a strong relationship with your bank — and tools like Ag Flex — can turn last-minute buys into long-term wins. Learn more at hubs.li/Q03sWpP80
Warburtons just dropped $650K to help build the future of Canadian wheat. The UK’s biggest bakery brand is backing @Cereals_Canada's new tech hub in Winnipeg — a global vote of confidence in Prairie grain. 🌾🍞 hubs.ly/Q03vKz8S0

🍁 On this Canada Day, we salute the ag researchers driving breakthroughs and the farmers putting them into practice. From wheat genetics to soil health, 🇨🇦 ag is leading the way in food security. #CanadaDay #CdnAg #SustainableFarming 🌱👩🔬

🇨🇦🌾 Canola growers, brace yourselves: A 25% tariff on U.S. seed imports could drive up your input costs—just as planting decisions lock in. It's geopolitics meets your bottom line. hubs.li/Q03v3NWw0

While rains brought some relief, only 50% of crops are rated good to excellent — far below average. The south remains parched, forage is struggling, and hay cuts are happening early. Farmers brace for a tough July. 🌾🌦 hubs.li/Q03tf7X90

💧 Every Drop Counts On #DesertificationAndDrought Day, we celebrate farmers who make more with less. Precision ag, cover crops, and soil health = stronger yields and lasting land. #WaterWisely #SoilHealth #RegenerativeAg

Crops are off to a flying start — 95% emerged, well ahead of normal. But dry soil is catching up fast. With surface moisture at just 20%, timely rain is now critical to keep this early momentum from stalling. hubs.li/Q03sfPG40
