Yesterday was my last day with BrettYoung, it was a very sad day. I will miss the people and relationships I have built over the past 10 years. But it’s not good bye! It’s see you soon and the first round is on me

This field of @BrettYoungSeeds Timothy seed production by Mayerthorpe, AB has been enjoying the rain showers it has received. First year field, thin in areas but looking good!

[Matt Wright @Hazmatt665]

My assistant Kiwi taking a break while scouting a perennial ryegrass #prg production field by Strathmore, AB. Fields a little thick but that will be alright! Need some warm temps next week after what is supposed to be a wet weekend

[Matt Wright @Hazmatt665]

Good morning! Edmonton area received 1/2” of rain overnight, grass crops are loving it. Great time to the leave the rubber boots at home… #feetaredrenched

[Matt Wright @Hazmatt665]

This Timothy @BrettYoungSeeds Timothy production field up by Athabasca Alberta appreciated all the moisture it received lately and has started to jump!

[Matt Wright @Hazmatt665]

This field of meadow brome grass for @BrettYoungSeeds seed production is looking very nice. It is a first year field that has just the first few heads appearing.

[Matt Wright @Hazmatt665]

Keep an eye on your fields! They are out in numbers this spring

[BrettYoung @BrettYoungSeeds]

Cutworm damage is being seen early this spring in some forage and turf seed production fields. These insects can do severe damage to your stand, so be on the lookout and reach out to your Seed Production Specialist if you have any questions.

Learning day! Taking in the turf & forage seed agronomy update, heard from sod great speakers. Nice to see all the research and information available in this industry!

[Matt Wright @Hazmatt665]

Great idea Rebecca! I think I’m going to steal this!

[Rebecca McCleary @BY_RebeccaM]

If you’re someone who likes to see what they’re getting themselves into before doing it, we are happy to take you along for a tour of forage or turf grass seed production fields throughout the growing season. Just give us a shout!🛻

[Matt Wright @Hazmatt665]

Continuing the spring the meetings! This time in Athabasca! Listening to Cole Zacharias talk about @BrettYoungSeeds forages and then I get to talk as well. Last week in meetings our MB guys mentioned that we seem to like our meetings in Alberta…

[Matt Wright @Hazmatt665]

Spending the day at the Wetaskawin Co-op grower meeting. I also get to speak on the benefits of @BrettYoungSeeds seed production! Should be a full day of some great speakers and conversations. #abag #plant24

[Matt Wright @Hazmatt665]

Stop by this week and say hi to @BY_JSchmidt !

[BrettYoung @BrettYoungSeeds]

Are you visiting the Lethbridge Ag Expo? If you are, be sure to stop by booth N13 in the seed fair (that's us!) and say hi. Not in Alberta? We're also at Top Crop Summit in Saskatchewan this week! Find us at either show; we can't wait to see you!

[Matt Wright @Hazmatt665]

@steeves11 Glad you can still have humour after that! Glad you are ok though

[Matt Wright @Hazmatt665]

Spending the day at the Alberta BC seed growers AGM in Edmonton, good turnout and lots of great conversations! Always nice to see growers I haven’t seen in a few years

[Matt Wright @Hazmatt665]

Finishing up another great #crossroads24 ag conference by listening to the meteorologist Drew Lerner, hope he has some good things to say!

[Matt Wright @Hazmatt665]

Great point Rebecca! Let me know if you want any more info on clover seed production

[Rebecca McCleary @BY_RebeccaM]

Input costs got you down? Maybe it’s time to add a nitrogen fixing crop into rotation, red clover is a great option if you’re thinking of trying something different! ☘️
