#DYK that canola can be affected by extreme hot temperatures and experience what is known as #HeatBlast? This can cause pod loss during flowering. 👀Check out the YouTube live with North Plains Agronomy from last week on heat-related problems to learn more! -TB

#Agtwitter What’s your favourite crop to #scout ? 🌱 My favourite is #Canola. Cotyledon ➡️ Flowering ➡️ Harvest Put a picture of your favourite crop in the comments! #Scout22 -TB

Here we see a field of a grower on #VR fertility. I overlaid the as-applied map onto the #VRFertility map and it matches up really well! Excited to see #harvest maps later this year! Do you use #VR technology on your farm? -TB

Always the biggest helper when it comes to scouting 😉🐶

#DYK That applied data helps us see where there are differences when seeding or spraying? This grower is doing seeding rate trials & is using #FarmersEdge treatment polygons to keep track of yields during harvest time. This is one of many great #digitaltools you can use! -TB

#Hail in Southern Alberta last week caused some damage to crops. Severe Weather Alerts and hail swath images allow us to determine what crops to #scout. Stay tuned for later this week to see the imagery! #FEAgronomy #FarmCommand - TB

Hey #Agtwitter, this #barley crop is seeing purple striping on some of the kernels. Growth stage of the crop is at late milk development and starting of early dough. 🌾 What’s might be causing this? #FEAgronomy #Scout22 South Prairies Agronomy Do you have an idea? -TB

#DYK: In #FarmCommand Center you can look at multiple fields #imagerylayers at once for a certain date! This allows for great comparisons of #NDVI between crops. You can also filter to look just at one crop, like #Wheat for example -TB

#FarmDogFriday Sadie is back again working with intern Terra Beck to #scout some fields this past week! Did you have any cute helpers in the field with you? Show us your dog Taylor Markham 🐶🌱📲 #DigitalAg #FEagronomy #Bootsontheground #FarmersEdge #FarmCommand -TB

Wishing everyone a safe and happy harvest!!! 🌾 #AgTwitter #harvest22

Thank you all!

We want to ensure Alberta’s producers have the support they need for a successful farm transition path. AFSC is proud to present, in partnership with FMC/GAC and MNP, another workshop to help families transition the farm between generations. #ABag bit.ly/3YeN5f4

Continued high crop prices are a major factor pushing 2023 premiums higher, coupled with more producers taking insurance and impacts from the 2021 drought. Learn more: bit.ly/3IY4XVs

My advice to women in ag: Give yourself the respect and confidence you expect from others. Women have been working in ag for generations, Social media doesn’t change that everyone has a role in the industry, that role looks different for everyone. Embrace it
