An Alberta ag organization now has a full complement of board members.

Alberta Canola had openings in four regions on its board of directors and those positions have been filled – all by acclamation:

  • Andre Harpe from Valhalla Centre will represent Region 2,
  • Justin Nanninga from Nerrlandia will represent Region 5,
  • Jeffrey Frost from Olds will represent Region 8, and
  • Roger Chevraux from Killam will represent Region 11.

The board members’ terms will officially begin after the organization’s AGM on Jan 24, 2024.

Harpe and Chevraux are entering their third terms as directors. Nanninga is beginning his second term and Frost is in his first term.

Directors may serve up to three consecutive terms on Alberta Canola’s board.

Another Alberta ag organization is in the process of electing its first board of directors.

The deadline for board nominations to be part of the first board for Alberta Grains came on Oct. 31.

The board of directors and delegates will be elected at the Alberta Grains AGM in January 2024.

Alberta Beef Producers is also accepting delegate nomination forms.

Interested producers can submit a completed form before 11:59 p.m. on Nov. 15.

The organization’s annual general meeting is scheduled for Feb. 28.

Kansas Wheat Harvest is in full swing!
Join me near Preston, Kansas as this farm harvests its 2026 winter wheat crop with two new Gleaner S98 combines. One combine is equipped with a MacDon FD240 FlexDraper while the second runs a Gleaner (AGCO) draper head, giving viewers a chance to compare both harvesting setups in the same field.

Keeping the combines moving is a powerful Versatile 610 Delta Track pulling a tandem axle Brent 1598 grain cart, hauling wheat from the combines so harvest can continue without stopping.
If you enjoy modern farm equipment, wheat harvest, combines, grain carts, and seeing how farms operate across America, I think you'll enjoy this one.
