Province Wants Feedback On Proposed Livestock Regulation Changes

 
The Manitoba government is looking for feedback on proposed changes to the Livestock Manure and Mortalities Management Regulation (LMMMR).
 
The hope is to reduce unfair regulatory barriers and to streamline processes to protect the environment and remove duplication within legislation and regulation.
 
The changes are expected to help facilitate growth of the livestock industry and its contribution to economic growth and employment opportunities in Manitoba.
 
Manitoba Sustainable Development will be accepting written submissions until May 12th, 2017.

Video: Cold Weather Farming: Tough Week On The Farm!

Cold weather has officially arrived at Ewetopia Farms, and this week gave us everything November in Canada can throw at a sheep farm! In today’s episode, Cold Weather Farming, we take you through a full week of real, raw, and unpredictable conditions that define life on a Canadian sheep farm this time of year.

From pouring rain to heavy winds, mud, freezing temperatures, and finally snow, we experienced just about every type of weather Mother Nature could deliver in a matter of days. With winter arriving early, it's all hands on deck to keep the farm running smoothly and to make sure our Suffolk and Poll Dorset sheep stay warm, dry, and comfortable.
