SeedMaster creates canola contest aimed at helping one grower in 2023

A new contest has been announced for canola growers in Western Canada.

SeedMaster announced on Nov. 9 the ‘160 Acres of Gold Giveaway’ which will see one grower win everything they essential need to grow a quarter section of canola.

This includes InVigor® hybrid canola seed from BASF, ESN Environmentally Smart Nitrogen fertilizer from Nutrien, and crop protection products with custom application. The winner will also have the ability to use a crop intelligence weather station and SeedMaster’s Ultra SR drill for the 2023 crop year.

The company says they created the contest as a way to recognize the significance of canola, while also highlighting the tools farmers can use to help meet the demand.

Video: Syngenta Ag Stories - Reanna Hagel, Channel Marketing Manager

Growing up on a cow-calf operation and small feedlot near Lumby, BC, Reanna learned agriculture the hands-on way with her sister on the family farm. Today, as Channel Marketing Manager for Syngenta Canada, what Reanna loves most about her work is simple: the customer is always at the centre. Whether that's a grower or a channel partner, she understands them on a personal level - because she's the daughter of one. But for Reanna, supporting ag doesn't stop at her job. She volunteers with local 4-H clubs, lends a hand to her farming neighbours, and is raising her own kids to understand and respect the land. Her advice to the next generation? "It's an amazing time to be in the industry - it's going to look completely different in 20 years. To be part of the evolution is very exciting."
