Launch of the Pork Promotion and Research Agency Website

OTTAWA - Pork producers across Canada welcomed the announcement of the establishment of the Canadian Pork Promotion and Research Agency (PPRA) back in November and now we are happy to announce the launch of its official website.
 
“The PRA will be an important vehicle for producers – it will help facilitate even greater collaboration across the value chain through increased research and promotion activities. In the long run, it will result in improving the long-term growth and competitiveness of the sector, said Rick Bergmann, Canadian Pork Council Chair. “I would like to thank Minister Bibeau for championing this initiative and moving forward with the establishment of the agency.”

Video: John Deere 500R Sprayer | Next-Generation Booms for Ultimate Precision


Experience the next level of precision spraying with the John Deere 500R sprayer and its new generation boom. Designed for modern farming operations and professional contractors, the 500R combines exceptional boom stability, accurate application and high productivity even at spraying speeds of up to 30 km/h.

The new boom generation features a compact 2.55 m transport width for safe and easy road travel across Europe, while unfolding in the field to working widths of up to 48 meters. A lightweight yet extremely rigid structure, combined with BoomTrac Pro 2, Active Boom Yaw Control and active roll damping, keeps the boom correctly positioned for consistent coverage and reduced drift.

Advanced spraying technologies such as ExactApply with 6-nozzles switchable from the cab, or single nozzle INC Pro using pulse width modulation ensure precise droplet control, minimized overlaps and optimized input efficiency. The result: higher accuracy, lower chemical usage and improved agronomic outcomes even in challenging field conditions.
