Happy #CanadianAgDay! I am blessed to not only have a career in Agriculture, but to call it my life! I am thankful for farmers and I am reminded everyday when a hard working man walks through the door how dedicated they are! 🤠🐮🌱🌾

Some farmers choose to use seed treatments to protect their crop's yield right from the start, but there's still a large number of farmers who don't treat their seed. We're curious if you don't treat your seed - which best matches your reason why?

Canola is dry, and considering 5” total moisture, it’s not disappointing! #VictoryPlots @VICTORYcanola #cargillgrows

Bertha & Diamondback damage is normal on canola every year. Controlling 1 Bertha/m2 is not worth the loss of all the beneficial insects, spray insecticides responsibly.
