Canada Post Strike disrupts Better Farming Ontario Magazine Distribution

The December issue of Better Farming Ontario has been held up, like many publications, by the Canada Post strike.

Ontario Federation of Agriculture (OFA), which provides their members with a Better Farming subscription, has graciously agreed to share the digital version of the December Better Farming Ontario issue immediately (there is normally a delay).

“In our Digging Deeper department this month, we have an extensive look at farmer 'to-do' lists for the winter months ahead,” says Better Farming Ontario’s publisher Paul Nolan. 

Katie and Luke Grove of Spring Grove Agri are featured on the cover of the magazine with a feature article on the inside “Flexibility, Family and Future: Spring Grove Agri. The magazine also includes the following feature articles:

Farms.com encourages everyone to support their local ag retailers during this difficult time of postal strikes and economic pressure. As you are flipping through the digital version of Better Farming Ontario, when you come across an advertisement where you would like to learn more about the vendor’s products, you just need to click the ad and you will be connected to the advertiser’s website imeediately.

If you are not an OFA member, but like what you see, you can subscribe to Better Farming Ontario here, the postal strike will be over at some point.

The Fendt Slicer explained: Grassland and forage stands show a high heterogeneous biomass growth when cut, which leads to different initial dry masses and drying speeds. The aim is to have a consistent dry matter content of 30 to 40% across the entire field. The Fendt Slicer 960/1010 Pro models with optional tine conditioner offer variable adjustment of the conditioner intensity thanks to the innovative ISOBUS control. The automatic adjustment is made using sensors in real time measurements or using application data based on the position registration of the biomass.
