At our grower meeting this week many of the speakers mentioned the ONLY WAY to combat the uncertainty of the world right now is through open communication with your " farm team" - banker, retail, accountant, fuel guy ect.. we can't help what we don't know about

If you have not had a conversation with your supplier about spring fertilizer needs, make it a priority. The attacks on Qatar/Iran gas production caused urea to jump another 5 - 7% overnight. I am more worried about supplies than price today... This is real.

'25 things that will likely impact '26 - I was called to more sprayer cleanout/crop injury calls than ever before this year. So as a note to producers before sure your cleaning protocol is CURRENT @coopagro_crs #agronomist @WetaskCoopAg

'25 things that will likely impact '26 - Wind blasting was incredibly impactful in '25 and "extreme" conditions seem to be the norm. Low disturbance may be best on certain soil types/fields & or direction of seeding @coopagro_crs #agronomist @WetaskCoopAg

'25 things that will likely impact '26 - Depth matters, likely more than you know. Check it, check it & check it again. Maturity, seed rate & yield all impacted. Likely a good place to save profit in '26 @coopagro_crs #agronomist @WetaskCoopAg

'25 things that will likely impact '26 - WO seed bank in our area is FULL FULL - consider a residual graminicide & a higher seed rate to help combat. Winter planning can be the difference between control & a 10 year problem moving forward @coopagro_crs #agronomist @WetaskCoopAg

2026 - the year of the "rusty grain beetle". So many calls about producers battling with this in the Wetaskiwin Area right now, sold out of protect it multiple times this year already. If you haven't done so - CHECK YOUR BINS #agronomist @coopagro_crs @WetaskCoopAg

POV the happy dance you do when your producer calls you because they left an untreated check strip in their canola fungicide this season & it yielded 9bu/ac less than the treated area on your recommendation to spray #agronomist #harvest25 #canola @coopagro_crs @CoopAgroWetask

First trial in the Wetaskiwin area off as of yesterday - 7bu/ac advantage in one canola variety - it pays to be working with local teams with local knowledge @coopagro_crs @CoopAgroWetask #harvest25 #canola

Found a really interesting weed this year - Wild Field Pansy. I can confidently say you don't want this one in your fields, fast spreading & hard to kill! This is after Simplicity & Occtain (best recommended combo)

I have been in A LOT of canola in the last two weeks. Stuff we sell, competitor varieties, and everything in-between. And there is NOTHING podding the main stem like this variety. The yield on this one is going to be SHOW STOPPING @coopagro_crs @CoopAgroWetask #plant26 #harvest25
