@FertilizerCA That should say, "...how Fert Can calculates 'right rate'....

@FertilizerCA Good publication though I'm curious how Fert Can "right rate" for N on corn? Here's a graph of "right rates" for corn in Illinois. ifca.com/media/web/1537…

The adoption of 4R Nutrient Stewardship is a shared opportunity for the entire agri-food industry. By aligning on 4R principles, stakeholders can: - Share knowledge and best practices - Strengthen Canada’s leadership in sustainable agriculture - Communicate progress on environmental and industry goals - Build trust across the industry Learn how 4R collaboration is shaping the future of Canadian agriculture: fertilizercanada.ca/wp-content/upl…

@KenSchaus If the US President Trump gets aggressive on duties on imports of Cdn ag products, an obvious tit-for-tat is a matching duty on US ethanol imported into Canada.

Canada is the Top destination for USA Ethanol Ontario could easily support another Ethanol plant

@seedzeke @PurdueCorn @PurdueAgryExt @PurdueAgronomy @PurdueAg @PurdueExtension The Growing Degree Day system appeals because of its simplicity, but it's highly unlikely that the response of corn to different temperatures is exactly the same as GDD accumulation suggests. We use another system in Canada (Corn Heat Units) but it has its flaws too.

@TerryDaynard @PurdueCorn @PurdueAgryExt @PurdueAgronomy @PurdueAg @PurdueExtension THAT is EXACTLY the question I have! I wonder now with AI will we be able to develop a more precise tool that factors in duration of high and low temperatures… Would be cool if we did!

As we get further into May, it’s important to understand hybrid growing degree day compression and not pulling the trigger too soon on switching maturities. @PurdueAgryExt @PurdueAgronomy @PurdueAg @PurdueExtension farmprogress.com/corn/corn-plan…

@guySADP France has always had more restrictions and higher costs. In the past this was matched with high subsidies and import restraints. Now the latter are disappearing while the former remain. Adjustment is hard, especially if/as farming loses public goodwill. Lessons for Canada too.

@debconlon @TD_Canada I and others in ag are highly appreciative when some big businesses invest the effort needed to truly understand agri-food issues. But it's disgust for those companies who simple want to portray themselves as being "in the know," when they obviously aren't.

@TerryDaynard @TD_Canada Terry thanks for highlighting we are reaching out to him to explain the ins and outs fertilizer needs forG&O —it’s good to see the national press covering the fert squeeze issues on farmers. The Feds fixing the BRM suite in short term is part of the solution.

Is the @TD_Canada economist who wrote this column that clueless about agriculture in implying that Cdn yield of soybeans, a legume crop, will suffer because of a tight supply of N fertilizer? theglobeandmail.com/gift/fa6d91b8c…

@CamiDRyan A wonderful column, Cami. We too often forget that farm/rural people have family/personal tragedies and successes much bigger than how well their crops do this year.

…There is always more behind what we see in this noisy, performative space we call the internet. Behind the profiles, the posts, the likes, even the sharp edges of online spaces, everyone carries a story. Often several. Stories that shape how we show up, what we hold back, and what we are still learning to carry. @camidryan/note/p-197034468?r=6uy5y&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=notes-share-action" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">substack.com/@camidryan/not…

@lisahepfner Hamilton ON has done amazing things in advancing its agri-food economy. I remember years ago when Hamilton reps approached ON Corn Producers' Assoc for political support to build its first grain/fertilizer shipping complex beside the QEW. They've sure grown so much since then!

Sweet! Hamilton’s port is now home to Sucro Can’s newly opened facility, which is set to become Canada’s largest sugar refinery. Agri-food is now second only to steel in terms of importance to our city’s economy.

@olblue81 @4nierfarms Another former neighbour said he went west to harvest in late 50s. The host farmer sent him to swath a distant quarter section before coming back to base. Gord said the fact he'd never operated a swather before was no excuse.

@olblue81 @4nierfarms When did the "harvest excursions" start and stop, for harvesting Prairie grain crops. I knew former ON farm boys who participated, I think, after WW II. A farmer who was once a close neighbour went "west" to stook, by himself, a quarter section of grain. (He quit after 1 day!)

My great grandfather homesteaded this quarter in 1906 after coming west from Ontario on the harvest excursion. This will be the 119th time a Lawrence has seeded it and the 37th time I have.

@Fortgoose Je ne sais pas.

@TerryDaynard Why?

Interesting that LGV rail line creation seems to trigger far less opposition from farmers in France than Ontario-Quebec.

I can't wait to watch the film: TOXIC! It is high time those opportunists were exposed on the big screen for the charlatans they are!

We’re back!!! - Cropwalker Planting Progress Survey – One day, two days, three days…, four? Please post percentage of corn and soybean planted and county below. Planting maps posted mid week. RT’s appreciated.

Their Coffee Is More Toxic Than Glyphosate Last week Del Bigtree (@delbigtree) and Food Babe (@foodbabe) rallied outside the Supreme Court against glyphosate. I've met these people. I exposed them in my films. They are not honest brokers. And they weren't alone. Cory Booker (@corybooker) and AOC (@aoc) are taking the bait on Glyphosate as evil— politicians I respect on a lot of issues. But not on this one. The science doesn't care about your team. The global scientific consensus is clear: the EPA, EU, Canada, Japan, and Australia have all concluded glyphosate does not cause cancer at real-world exposures. Oh — and their coffee is more toxic than glyphosate. Scientifically speaking. More receipts coming. Including a deep dive into IARC — the organization behind the "probable carcinogen" claim — and why they'll be front and center in my next project: TOXIC Stay tuned. @marklynas @bayer #Glyphosate #Roundup #FoodEvolution #ShotInTheArm #MAHA #PeopleVersusPoisin #FoodScience #ScienceMatters #Monsanto #IARC #SupremeCourt

@TerryDaynard @OntarioSoilCrop Rather than "first come,first served and win" maybe they should be pro rated or at least be subject to which has the most value
