Nat’l ag stewardship group coming to collect unwanted pesticides, old livestock meds

A national agricultural stewardship organization that collects unwanted pesticides and old, obsolete livestock and equine medication from farmers and producers will soon be in Moose Jaw to pick up those materials.

Cleanfarms will be at the Parrish & Heimbecker terminal at 1-501 High Street West on Thursday, Oct. 26, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. to acquire: 

  • Unwanted or obsolete agricultural pesticides identified with a Pest Control Number (PCN) on the label; this includes used miticide strips that beekeepers use

Video: Research in Action | Swine Cluster 4 - Activity 8: Precision Feeding with Dr. Aline Remus


Research in Action is a video series from Swine Innovation Porc that highlights the people and projects driving innovation in Canada's pork sector.

In this episode, Dr. Aline Remus (Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada) explains how precision feeding is helping producers improve efficiency, reduce feed costs and lower environmental impacts while supporting animal health and welfare.

As part of Swine Cluster 4 - Activity 8, this research is advancing precision livestock farming by tailoring nutrition to the needs of individual pigs or groups of pigs. The project aims to reduce feed costs, decrease greenhouse gas emissions and nutrient losses, and develop practical precision feeding systems that producers can confidently adopt on-farm.

By bringing together researchers from across Canada and around the world, this work is helping transform innovative research into practical solutions for a more sustainable and competitive Canadian pork sector.
