We’re back to open air learning at the Farming Smarter Field School – June 23! 

8:00 am – 4:30 pm

Come learn about the impact of land rolling on grain and silage production in cereals under irrigation, the effectiveness of seeding durum ultra-early, and how winter crops get a jump on growth in the spring!  

Additionally, we will showcase the latest advancements in variable rate irrigation and bring back a few of our favourite trials on-the-go – Perfectly Placed Pulses, and the effects of biostimulants on wheat, pea, & canola!  

This year, we have an A-list cast of speakers with outstanding presentations.  Staff and guest speakers, like Western Ag Innovation’s own Eric Bremer, and AAFC’s Brian Beres will show you on-going projects in our fields. 

Join us for a full day of exciting research discussion and see the latest advancements in agriculture innovation.   

We hope to see you there!
