🌱 Join us March 26 at the Manning Legion Hall for the NPARA AGM! We’ll cover local, producer-led research driving regenerative agriculture in the Peace region — followed by lunch (12 PM) and a presentation from @ShaunHaney of @realagriculture. npara.ca/events/agm-sav…

That’s a wrap on #BelowGround2026 🌱 Two days of practical soil health learning + real producer conversations in Dawson Creek. Huge thanks to our speakers, sponsors, volunteers, and partners for making it happen. What was your biggest takeaway? #SoilHealth #PeaceRegion

The January 1st Canadian cattle inventories were up 2.5% at 11.1 million head. Calves were up 4.6% in the West and up 3.3% in the East. Beef cows were up 1.9% and beef replacement heifers were up 4.8%... Read More 👉: canfax.ca #CanfaxMarket #CattleMarkets #herd

Keep a living root in the soil. That vegetative plant is crucial for building soil stability. Reduce tillage to improve soil health. #SoilHealth #RegenAg

Rolling this Thursday! If soil health is on your radar this season, don’t sit this one out. Below Ground 2026 is Feb 26 in Dawson Creek—packed with practical takeaways you can put to work right away. Register: BelowGround2026.eventbrite.com

How do you get more water infiltrated & reduce compaction? Grain, organic, cattle, & mixed farms all have different ways. Sand or clay soils also change things. Soil chemistry balance is key! #SoilHealth #FarmingTips

Tracks can make compaction worse, not better. Watch your wheel weights & tire inflation. There's a lot to consider when managing compaction. #FarmingTips #SoilHealth

Stories from the Peace River region often involve being drowned out on one side and flooded out on the other. It's a place of extremes. #PeaceRiver #LocalStories

Annual crops only feed the soil for 30 days. Root exudates drop off dramatically once the plant starts putting up a stem. Focus on feeding your soil biology in that crucial first month. #SoilHealth #RegenAg

In Saskatchewan, the running joke is that after rain, the next drought is only 6 weeks away. Farmers are always watching the sky, hoping for the perfect amount of moisture. #Saskatchewan #Farming

Below Ground 2026 is back — 4th Annual Soil Health Conference. A full day of practical, producer-relevant learning in Dawson Creek—built for what works here. BelowGround2026.eventbrite.com #BelowGround2026 #SoilHealth #DawsonCreek #PeaceRegion #BCag #FarmSmart #RegenerativeAg #AgEvent

Regenerative principles vs. conventional. See the difference? On the left, years of regenerative practices. On the right, conventional summer fallow. The slake test doesn't lie. #RegenerativeAg #SoilHealth

Years of excess water taught me a lot about soil health. Even though it was tough to farm, seeding cover crops accelerated soil health improvements, despite the challenges. #SoilHealth #CoverCrops

Don't bale straw unless you're returning it to the field! Baling removes a huge resource from the soil. What are your thoughts on this? #Agriculture #SoilHealth

Even a little rain can cause runoff if your soil is too compacted. Agriculture isn't inherently bad, but our choices impact water absorption and soil health. We can affect it for good or bad. #SoilHealth #Agriculture

Tracking water infiltration? I've been measuring mine every 4 years by filling an exhaust pipe and recalculating. Happy to see the progress I'm making! #DIY #HomeImprovement

Cover crops can change soil moisture, but you need to dig deeper than a foot to see the full effect. One farmer's experiment revealed double the moisture at 4 feet with cover crops. #CoverCrops #SoilHealth
