"In the 2018 campaign, Mr. Ford promised to “maintain the Greenbelt in its entirety.” And in 2020 he said in the legislature: “I have not touched the Greenbelt, we won’t touch the Greenbelt, we won’t build on the Greenbelt.” tgam.ca/3G6KCNQ

Excellent news, let’s make this a national discussion. We need to talk about the importance of protecting our valuable agricultural soils. Future generations are depending on us. #farmland #FoodSecurity #CdnAg #StopSprawl

Congratulations to my MSc student Connor Goodwin for winning first place in the ASA Community: Cover Crop Management at the Tri-societies Annual Meeting in San Antonio, Texas! Connor's research is looking at the potential for dual purpose cover crops (harvesting for forage)
