Saskatchewan Crop Commodity Groups Hold AGM's

Normally farmers would be heading to Saskatoon for Crop Production and Crop Sphere activities, but this year everything is going virtual.
 
With the COVID restrictions commodity groups have opted to hold their AGM's online.
 
Spokesperson Dallas Carpenter says everything starts on Monday.
 
"We have the Canaryseed, Winter Cereals, Mustard, Forage Seed, Alfalfa Seed and Leaf Cutters AGM's going on that day. People can register for all of those, they can be either an observer or a voting member."
 
He notes Tuesday features Market Outlook presentations with Chuck Penner from LeftField Commodity Research  and Marlene Boersch with Mercantile Consulting Venture.
 
Tuesdays AGM's include Canola, Wheat, Barley, Flax, Oats and Pulses.
 
Producers can still register at saskcrops.com

Sorting Ewes & Rams | Breeding Time On The Farm!

Video: Sorting Ewes & Rams | Breeding Time On The Farm!

In this episode, we’re sorting ewes into their breeding groups and introducing them to unrelated rams. Moving rams between barns always comes with challenges, but once the boys meet their ewes, everyone was eager to settle in!

We also welcome back a returning customer who purchased a Suffolk ram from us last year. This season, she chose a Dorset cross ram, now named Benny, to strengthen her flock’s genetics. It’s always rewarding to see repeat customers who value the quality of our breeding stock.

Arnie then tours the crop fields as harvest season approaches. Despite drought conditions this summer, the crops are looking surprisingly good. We close the day with evening feedings and one last look at the rams with their new breeding groups.

?? Join us daily for life on a working sheep farm, from flock management and breeding strategies to crops, chores, and the everyday rhythm of farm life.
