It's a GREAT day for some #jonnycash. It's a REALLY GREAT day to celebrate #alberta and the potential pulse crops for #plant26. Got questions? We have answers (or at least we know a bunch of really smart people who do!) #peas #lentils #chickpeas #beans #faba #fava

What a year it has been what a year it will be Looking back is important to see what we've seen And learn what we've learned to map where we go So lessons behind us have something to show Now it might go well or it might go bad The end of the day, a great balancing act #2025recap

GOOD for the farm. Good for you (actually GREAT for you) and GOOD for your PETS! Amazing at how ag is woven into every facet of life. In the meantime meet ZOMBA (who is now 1000x this size). #pets #bernese #faba #peas #lentil #chickpeas #farming #healthyfood #sustainableag

Turning frost damage into opportunity! RDAR-funded research shows that frost-damaged faba beans can be safely and effectively fed to pigs, offering pulse growers a new market and swine producers a lower-cost feed option. Learn more: https://t.co/GzlvAwnhaE

Breakfast never tasted so good! No one will know you added beans to these pancakes to pump up the protein & fibre content. This recipe is perfect for those “breakfast for supper” meals too! https://t.co/80gbB4EYY6 #pancakes #lovecdnbeans

#funfactfriday whilst i sit by a fire :) Not only are they pretty, #faba flowers tell us about a compound called tannin (a proanthocyanidin) and often dictates where these beans will go at the end of the day. #farming #fava #flowers #todayisbroughttoyoubytheletterF

Often called trash, but its not garbage. Key food for soil microbes. My dad used to till it in but no-till seeding systems leaves it on the surface. Which means we have the opportunity to actively manage it. #soilhealth #farming #harvest25 #plant26

Understanding physiology informs management. Farmers do this instinctually, through years of learning and some trial and error. Fava/faba beans are different than a lot of the other crops we grow. #welikedifferent #fava #faba #farming #agronomy https://t.co/KerI168FuK

As the season winds down, one of the final things on our list is fall soil sampling... there are pros and cons to testing now. Which apparently was very hard for me to get out. Just keeping it real. #farming #agronomy #soil #payitforward #Bloopers
