When all the policy focus on a changing climate has been on slowing or stopping the change from happening, a second aspect has been largely ignored: adaptation. That’s the subject of a new policy concepts paper, “Climate Change in Canadian Agriculture: The Context and the Evidence Demonstrate that Policy Should Refocus on Adaptation,” penned by... Read More
The Prairie Farmer and Rancher Forum eventually agreed — by consensus — on 36 policy recommendations it wants to see put forward. But that doesn’t mean that all the attendees of the forum agreed with each other at the outset. Instead, the forum worked hard to find areas of common interest and support to create... Read More
The beast is back! Ontario’s winter wheat crop has high yield potential but there are also high levels of yield robbing fusarium in fields in some regions of the province. Real Agriculture agronomist Peter ‘Wheat Pete’ Johnson says it’s not as bad as 1996 when fusarium decimated the provincial winter wheat crop, but growers will... Read More

Work for the growing season doesn’t end with seeding. Soon after, it’s important to be out doing early season scouting in order to mitigate potential issues. There are two main things that a producer is looking for when early season scouting: one is to measure the success of the seeding operation, including how many plants... Read More
Cereals Canada has officially announced its broad vision for a new $100 million facility to be built in downtown Winnipeg that would be branded as the Global Agriculture Technology Exchange (Gate.) The national cereal grain value chain organization sees the facility serving as a hub for Canada’s grain industry, promoting the use of Canadian crops... Read More
When fungicides are effectively applied to protect soybean plants growers can expect to see more uniform and bigger seed size when the combine rolls through fields at harvest. On this episode of the RealAgriculture Soybean School, BASF Canada agronomist Ken Currah says growers can harvest heavier and denser seed, which produces extra bushels, when they... Read More

Last week’s intense heat and humidity across much of Ontario had significant impacts on several crops, some of them good, some of them not so good. Heat-loving crops, such as corn, had a rip-roaring week, blasting through leaf stages, however any spring cereals in the flowering stage or crops with poor root growth suffered in... Read More
For those following the grain markets, how do you tease out seasonal lows or ticks lower versus bigger issues dragging on prices? It’s not an easy distinction to make, says Chuck Penner, founder of Leftfield Commodity Research. This time of year, as the calendar flips to summer and the crop potential gets measured week by...

Grasshoppers devastated many fields last year over large parts of the Prairies. Of the over 80 species of grasshoppers found on the Prairies, only four are pests — but in sufficient numbers they are a huge concern. After several years of building populations, the pest is still likely to be an issue this year but... Read More
Rainy weather during the in-crop weed control season can make it difficult to give corn want it wants to maintain maximum yield potential: that long critical weed-free period. The difference between fields that received pre-emerge applications and those that did not is quite noticeable in southern Manitoba (and many other areas) this year, as regular... Read More
When a detrimental fungus can travel as far and fast as stripe rust can, it is well worth being vigilant about. With susceptible varieties of wheat, this damaging crop disease can impact yields by anywhere between 50 to 90 per cent. Agronomists in southern Manitoba have identified the disease in wheat fields this week. In... Read More
It’s been a tough spring for planting corn in Ontario. Planting season started in late April and some growers are now just getting their last acres in the ground during the final days of June. That seven-week planting season will present challenges for growers as they try to assess yield potential and apply fungicides to... Read More

Grasshoppers, both pest species and not, thrive in dry conditions. When back to back (to back) years end up in a dry cycle, grasshopper populations can explode and wipe out a crop. One year of higher moisture isn’t likely to undue that lifecycle bump, so farmers in Saskatchewan and Alberta need to stay vigilant on... Read More
