Canola Council statement on Bill C-359

The Canola Council of Canada (CCC) welcomes the tabling of Bill C-359, An Act to amend the Feeds Act, Seeds Act, and Pest Control Products Act (provisional registration and approval), by Kody Blois, Member of Parliament and Chair of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Agriculture and Agri-Food. Bill C-359 aims to improve access to new products and innovations for Canadian farmers. The bill establishes a legislative pathway for the provisional approval of products that are new to the Canadian market.

Now, more than ever, we need to support innovation and put tools in the hands of Canadian farmers as we work to feed and fuel the world. Bill C-359 can help bolster Canada’s competitiveness, address global food security and increase the resilience of Canada’s agricultural sector. The CCC encourages all parliamentarians to support this important bill.

What I’m Checking Behind the Planter This Spring

Video: What I’m Checking Behind the Planter This Spring



This is the first episode of a new behind-the-scenes series on our farm.

Today I’m checking behind the planter looking at planting depth, seed-to-soil contact, and making sure we’re placing seed into moisture, even in a dry spring.

Everything can look good from the cab, but this is where you find out what’s really happening.

We also ran into a prescription issue that slowed us down, which is a good reminder that even when conditions are ideal, the little things still matter.

If you’re planting right now, it’s worth taking a few minutes to check behind your planter.
