Strengthening Collaboration for Manitoba Farmers

Leaders from Manitoba Crop Alliance (MCA), Manitoba Canola Growers Association (MCGA) and Manitoba Pulse & Soybean Growers (MPSG) came together for a joint meeting focused on collaboration and strategic alignment. The session provided an opportunity to strengthen relationships and explore how our organizations can better work together in support of our farmer members and Manitoba’s agriculture industry.

A common thread throughout the day was the importance of clear, consistent communication between organizations, with government and, most importantly, with farmers. Discussions explored shared priorities in research, innovation and extension, emphasizing the need to communicate results in ways that are practical and accessible.

Participants also reflected on how communication shapes each organization’s value proposition and impact, particularly as expectations around return on investment continue to evolve. Advocacy alignment further reinforced the power of co-ordinated messaging and engagement.

This meeting reflects a shared commitment to ongoing dialogue and collaboration among all three organizations. By strengthening communication and working together with intention, MCA, MCGA and MPSG are better positioned to deliver meaningful outcomes and support Manitoba farmers well into the future.

Video: Kansas Wheat Harvest 2026 | Three John Deere S7 700 Combines in Action

Kansas Wheat Harvest 2026 is underway near Alden, Kansas!

In this video, I spend time with Frederick Harvesting, a custom harvesting operation based in Alden, Kansas. Back at their home farm, three new John Deere S7 700 combines equipped with John Deere HDF40 draper heads work through a drought-stricken winter wheat crop while one of the farm's John Deere 8R 370 tractors pulls a Brent 1398 grain cart.

Most of the Frederick Harvesting crew was already busy cutting wheat in southwest Kansas, but these machines remained at home to finish up local fields. Throughout the video, I explain what is happening, discuss the effects of dry conditions on the crop, and capture plenty of aerial footage showing the combines working with the grain elevator at Alden in the background.
