Crop scouting… seed-row fertilizer got #barley plants started, now plugged mid-row urea hose showing N #fertilizer response. Direct seeding preserves #soil cover… prior crop residue is good when strong southern Alberta winds & bad when inhibits #crop growth.
What if biggest challenge with AI in #agriculture is the beliefs in the AI…? Base-cation exchange or Sufficiency in fertilizer-soils, Zone or Grid for field variability, GMO or non-GMO for plant-animal genetics, Chemicals or Organic for crop inputs, Animal confinement or Free-range for animals, Individual or Collective for land ownership, Free market or Marketing Boards for price discovery, Climate crisis or Plants use CO2 for taxes, Indigenous ways of Knowing or Colonial science for research, Global trade or 100 mile diet for food availability…
Question for everyone.
Has anyone not been able to buy fertilizer this spring?
I know prices are high. I know you might have to wait for it's delivery
But has anyone been told "it does not exist to purchase today"?
Edit: I also do not mean prices pulled after major events.
Canada, a nation with an absolutely obscene amount of Natural Gas, is buying it from Australia and shipping it across the world, because we are retarded.
The Alberta sugar beet industry contributes an estimated $248 million annually to the provincial economy — supporting over 2,150 local jobs across farming, trucking, processing, and more.
When you buy local sugar, you’re investing in Alberta’s communities.

To all voters in Canada: Carney is playing you again. “USA bad”? We are a prosperous country and we are strong. In reality, we’re more divided than ever. BC and Quebec want to block us at every turn. Ford can't figure out Crown Royal is Canadian made and The media lies—Carney’s speech had at most 200 people, while Trump’s had over 1,000 and was standing room only in a packed house. Carney and Ford destroyed CUSMA. Maybe look at the problems—it’s our leaders.
I enjoy a large (for me) investment in SK farmland.
Delighted the always impressive @PremierScottMoe and the now impressive @WabKinew have applied the pressure needed to resolve the punishing Chinese canola tariffs.
Just wish no EVs were needed. I admire HYBRIDS not EVs.
So the U.S. government can go into a foreign country 3000 miles away, with helicopters, in the dead of night, get past all security, and kidnap the leader of a country without any casualties and then fly safely all the way back home but they have no idea how many acres of corn American farmers have planted.
Got it!
Western producer did their top 10 stories for 2025 and missed out the PBFC, the largest feeder cooperative by 10x that was shut down by the Alberta government while having $281 million in government guaranteed loans, 2 directors received a year suspension, all the directors and admin stepped down at the same time and the first time in 100 years the program was temporarily suspended
Also AgraCity taking money from farmers while never delivering product and then going into bankruptcy protection is a huge story that missed the list.
Why?
