Stop Blowing $60 Per Acre Out Your Combine


Stop Blowing $60 Per Acre Out Your Combine

Canola growers can lose up to 5 bushels per acre from combine losses. At today’s prices, that adds up to $60 or more. The Combine Performance Clinic will help you put more of that money in your pocket.

The Canola Council of Canada and Alberta Canola Producers Commission will host a Combine Performance Clinic in Westlock, Alberta, July 18 and 19. Choose from three different sessions: Monday during the day, Monday evening, or Tuesday during the day.

The clinic includes break-out sessions from five combine manufacturers. Each company will have a combine on hand to show how to make adjustments for greater efficiencies.

Cost is only $100 per person.

To register, go to http://canola.ab.ca/combine_performance_clinic_2011.aspx or call 1-866-834-4378 ext. 2111.
