Multi-herbicide resistant weeds have been found in several Canadian and U.S. regions and the amount of ground they cover expands every year. On the list of worst offenders: kochia, wild oats, waterhemp, and Canada fleabane. Herbicides will continue to play a dominant role in weed control, but which herbicides, what type, and when is a… Read More

More diverse crop rotations are better, agronomically speaking, but economically speaking, the story is not always so clear. Cash flow in the immediate term sometimes takes centre stage when growing a high-profit crop such as canola. But what if growing a more diverse rotation was just as profitable as growing canola in a one-in-two, or… Read More
