Glad to support this soil health field school run by our partner @FarmingSmarter. Among the strategies demonstrated for improving soil nutrients were cover cropping and roller crimping, a process that bends rather than cuts stalks. https://t.co/wc8olsqtfE

It's been a fantastic start to #PlotHop23 with amazing presentations from @SheriStrydhorst @killerkencoles @GorimLinda @gdhillon34 & @deering_trevor!

We're looking forward to our last presentations this afternoon to close out this great day of field learning!

Rescue treatments didn't work in this research trial on wheat, field pea and dry bean.... https://t.co/AdUscq8YOf @killerkencoles @gdhillon34

Seeding inter-row cover crops in sugar beets. After in-crop herbicide, before canopy closure. Looking to combat post-harvest soil erosion. @FarmingSmarter @jfa149 #SavingSoils

[Gurbir Singh Dhillon @gdhillon34]

@steeves11 @cdnagro @FarmingSmarter @lewbaarda No, the study tested response to hail damaged wheat, field pea and dry beans. Canola was not included in this study. But recovery products didn’t work on any of the three crops so wouldn’t expect a lot from them on canola either.

@gdhillon34 presenting on it next Thursday at the #FSFS23

Roller crimping fall rye and seeding barley behind the crimper. The project looks at the viability and possible benefits of roller crimping cover crops under southern Alberta growing conditions.

Strip tilling cover crops to prepare seed rows and retain inter-row living mulch. Project seeks to reduce erosion in irrigated farmlands and funded by @RBC Tech for Nature and @WestonFamilyFdn

[Mike Gretz @mikegretz]

@farmingsmarter Installed the neutron probes yesterday with @LethCollege @carloherk for the ARD strip till canola project. Measuring soil moisture to 1m in strip till, cultivated, no till treatments in dryland and Irrigated.
