November Mid-Month Pulse Market Report

What Will Happen with Canadian Pulse Supplies?
 
There will always be some argument about the exact size of the 2013 Canadian crop, but it’s fair to say people will reminisce about 2013 as a year to remember. Along with a huge crop though, there’s always the question about what to do with it now that it’s in the bin. In this article, we’ll look at some ideas for marketing the memorable 2013 pea and lentil crops.It’s quite certain the Canadian pea crop set a new record in 2013 even though acres were lower than last year. Statistics Canada hasn’t released its final estimate yet, but provincial crop reports suggest the average yield could be more than 45 bushels an acre (bu/ac), nearly 12 bushels higher There will always be some argument about the exact size of the 2013 Canadian crop, but it’s fair to say people will reminisce about 2013 as a year to remember.

Video: What Is Remote Sensing In Precision Agriculture? - The World of Agriculture

What Is Remote Sensing In Precision Agriculture? In this informative video, we will dive into the fascinating world of remote sensing and its role in precision agriculture. Remote sensing technology allows farmers to gather critical information about their fields without the need for physical presence. By utilizing satellites, drones, and aircraft equipped with advanced sensors, farmers can monitor various aspects of their crops, from temperature and moisture levels to overall plant health.

We will explore how the data collected through remote sensing can empower farmers to make strategic decisions for their crops. With the ability to identify specific areas that require more water or nutrients, farmers can optimize resource usage, leading to healthier plants and improved yields.

Moreover, remote sensing plays a vital role in tracking crop growth over time. By comparing images taken at different growth stages, farmers can evaluate their crops’ development and adjust their management practices accordingly.
