Few months later and it’s ready to harvest. Mediocre yielder and lodged like crazy (over half the stem snapped off prior to this) …but hey, it’s pretty!

Growing my first wheat crop this year (a whopping 50 seeds in a cut flower garden). It’s a 100+ year old European variety with a niche market in the floral and design world. For kicks, I calculated what a bushel would cost… $80,990. Makes canola seed seem like a bargain!

Thought I knew plants, but there's always more to learn. The white snapdragons on the left were once the same colour as the right. Placing them near a fruit bowl with bananas caused them to fade—turns out ethylene exposure does that! #UnintentionalExperiment

That week in the crop inputs business when you’re selling fertilizer, seed, pre-seed products, in-crop, and fungicide all at once:

As more drills start seeding, we wish everyone a safe and successful season. With dedication, some long days, and a little help from Mother Nature, here's hoping for a strong start to the crops!

Promo item idea: Custom covers for Saskatchewan Crop Protection Guides. While this old DuPont one fits the Alberta blue book, having a company make protective covers for Sask guides would be awesome. #WestCdnAg

@FMCAgCanada's fall initiative, Clean Fields, Community Yields is back. Your purchase of FMC fall herbicides at Horizon Fertilizers means more than weed-free fields – it aids the community too. Until Oct 31st, FMC is donating 10Ā¢ per acre to Muenster Cooperative Childcare Center!

Does anyone know what this black disease is on the canola pods? Seeing patches of it in fields today after a week of moist weather. In the same fields there’s also blackleg & verticillium stripe symptoms 😬 @canolacouncil @SaskCanola @SKAgriculture @CanolaWatch

When @FMCAgCanada sends a Coragen Max lego forklift kit, you can’t not build it. Hands down our favourite marketing strategy this seasonšŸ›
