Agriculture Roundup for Tuesday, November 29

Nov 29, 2022

CN Rail announced a donation of $100,000 to Shock Trauma Air Rescue Service during Canadian Western Agribition (CWA).

CN’s donation will be used for the operational needs in Saskatchewan. This will provide direct support to communities and stakeholders along CN’s network in Saskatchewan, where many CN employees live and work.

CN President and CEO Tracy Robinson said the service STARS provides often means the difference between life and death for those in urgent need.

“We, at CN, are proud to support the efforts of this outstanding team. As a former board member of STARS, I understand the important role this organization plays in the lives of so many communities, including Saskatchewan,” she said.

Video: The Corn Looks Good!

Border View Farms is a mid-sized family farm that sits on the Ohio-Michigan border. My name is Nathan. I make and edit all of the videos posted here. I farm with my dad, Mark and uncle, Phil. We also have a part-time employee, Brock. My dad started the farm in 1980. Since then we have grown the operation from just a couple hundred acres to over 3,000. Watch my 500th video for a history of our farm I filmed with my dad.

I started making these videos in the fall of 2019 as a way to help show what I do on a daily basis as a farmer. Agriculture is different from any other industry and I believe the more people that are showing their small piece of agriculture, helps to build our story. We face unique challenges and stressful situations but have some of the most rewarding payoffs in the end. I get to spend everyday doing what I love, raising my kids on the farm, and trying to push our farm to be better every year. I hope that I can address questions or concerns that you might have about farms and agriculture.

I hope you enjoy my content and ask questions as you have them. I do my best to answer anything I can. Thanks for watching!
