P&H Milling to expand Ontario facility

HAMILTON, ONTARIO, CANADA — P&H Milling Group, a division of Parrish & Heimbecker Ltd., will expand its Hamilton, Ontario, facility with a third flour mill and two storage silos, reinforcing the company's commitment to Canadian agriculture producers and the steadily growing demands of the baking industry.

The two new storage silos will handle feed ingredients such as soymeal and distiller’s dried grains, along with wheat for the flour mills, Parrish & Heimbecker said in its Feb. 9 announcement. Construction of the third mill at the campus is scheduled to begin in March. The facility currently has a daily production capacity of 7,300 cwts, according to Sosland Publishing Co.’s 2024 Grain & Milling Annual.

No-Till vs Tillage: Why Neighboring Fields Are World Apart

Video: No-Till vs Tillage: Why Neighboring Fields Are World Apart

“No-till means no yield.”

“No-till soils get too hard.”

But here’s the real story — straight from two fields, same soil, same region, totally different outcomes.

Ray Archuleta of Kiss the Ground and Common Ground Film lays it out simply:

Tillage is intrusive.

No-till can compact — but only when it’s missing living roots.

Cover crops are the difference-maker.

In one field:

No-till + covers ? dark soil, aggregates, biology, higher organic matter, fewer weeds.

In the other:

Heavy tillage + no covers ? starving soil, low diversity, more weeds, fragile structure.

The truth about compaction?

Living plants fix it.

Living roots leak carbon, build aggregates, feed microbes, and rebuild structure — something steel never can.
