Last of the seed treatment trials going in today! Trial work goes that much smoother when you work with great growers and great cooperators! #syngenta #canola #agronomy

Finding upwards of 8 to 12 cutworm per square foot already this spring. I’d sure be looking at your seed treat package this spring. #agronomy #cutworm

The last of the VR prescriptions are uploaded, just in time for drills and spreaders to get rolling! #swatmaps #precisionag

Winter has arrived; so have our booking discounts...403-994-SEED (7333).

[Garrett Rockafellow @FarmFocusedAg]

Be sure to keep an eye on your canola, what can look like drill skips can actually lead to much more! #cutworm #agronomy #canola

[SWAT MAPS @swatmaps]

Welcome @FarmFocusedAg to our elite network of #SWATMAPS service providers!

After seeing the results first-hand of using SWAT MAPS on his own farm, Garrett Rockafellow knew that the #SWATECOSYSTEM was going to be the next big step for his business.

Nice to see some hay starting to leave the sheds now that a bit of warmer weather is coming in #hay #dairy @luxfarms

Beautiful day to ground truth variable rate maps! #precisionag #variablerate #soilsampling

And that’s a wrap on export Timothy and first cut mixed hay! Time to switch gears back to 2nd cut alfalfa. #hay2021

@TylerWist1 @Megarhyssa I was wondering if i could get a hand with an ID, found feeding in barley and wheat. Thanks!

[Garrett Rockafellow @FarmFocusedAg]

After probably the most frustrating and disheartening day I figured a 5k run in the rain on my almost ready to combine canola would make for a better day

[Garrett Rockafellow @FarmFocusedAg]

@ChrisSuominen @EmmettSawyer6 @DavidMacTaggar1 @JessicaR_Giles @LukeRadau Agriculture is a vast industry, many people just look at those on the front line producing food. But in reality we need agronomists, vets, nutritionists, economists, bankers and many other jobs to fulfill the needs of our industry.

@Katie14Hudson Something a grain cart driver would say

[Garrett Rockafellow @FarmFocusedAg]

No matter how crappy this #harvest19 is there is going one thing we can all agree on, it’s probably the grain cart drivers fault for all of it
