Prograin Expands To Western Canada

 
The largest private added-value soybean company in the country has made the move to western Canada.
 
Prograin, a family owned company, has been in the market for 35 years in Quebec.
 
Alexandre Beaudoin is the sales and marketing manager for seed in Canada.
 
He explained the advantage of being solely focused on soybeans.
 
"A lot of companies have corn, soybeans, and other products. Being strictly soybeans, we can concentrate and be more efficient and be more competitive in the soybean market."

Video: EP 65 Grazing Through Drought

Welcome to the conclusion of the Getting Through Drought series, where we look at the best management practices cow-calf producers in Alberta can use to build up their resiliency against drought.

Our hope is that the series can help with the mental health issues the agriculture sector is grappling with right now. Farming and ranching are stressful businesses, but that’s brought to a whole new level when drought hits. By equipping cow-calf producers with information and words of advice from colleagues and peers in the sector on the best ways to get through a drought, things might not be as stressful in the next drought. Things might not look so bleak either.

In this final episode of the series, we are talking to Ralph Thrall of McIntyre Ranch who shares with us his experience managing grass and cows in a pretty dry part of the province.
