Yes, we often use the dairy industry as a great example of early adopters of genomic selection technology, bringing economic, environmental and social benefits for the industry. I was so pleased to see the team receive the Industry award at the #CanadianGenomicsSummit
Cami Ryan, PhD@CamiDRyan
Did you know… Canada is a world FIRST in using genomic evaluation as a tool to lower the #dairy 🥛 🐄 industry's carbon footprint by reducing emissions without affecting production traits. - Christine Baes #canadiangenomicssummit

My favourite new acronym here at #CanolaWeek2024 was YEN aka Yield Enhancement Network by @AtlanticGrain @AAFC_Canada. How can we expand this across the country to reap the benefits including yield, uptake of certified seed & new varieties just to name a few.

@CamiDRyan I couldn’t agree more. I also am grateful to my 4-H mentee that I learn from each time we connect. #CdnAg is in great hands with these leaders. @4HCanada

Today I spent a bit of time (online) with my 4-H mentee. We talked about agriculture, communication, careers, knitting, crocheting, and crafts. We talked about life in general.
I learned so much from this bright young soul.
She is a giant.

Stops & starts for #Harvest24 with rain & unsettled weather. 65% done over the last 4 weeks. The weather & the waiting has been a hassle but we’ve been fortunate to have great help & yields are average. We’ll need another good week to wrap up harvest. @GerryHertz @tdhenry10

@CamiDRyan @globalfoodsecur Thank you for turning up the volume on this great Canadian innovation story!

Yes, Canadian agriculture is sustainable! Check out the @globalfoodsecur report on Sustainability — here’s the link: gifs.ca/sustainableag
(cool graphics in thread)
✅Canadian growers are the most sustainable producers of non-durum wheat in the world
✅Saskatchewan’s canola has the lowest carbon footprint by a wide margin
✅Saskatchewan producers sequester approximately 15.6 m tonnes of carbon annually — equivalent to taking 3.4 m cars off the road.
