Got down to 10 F (-12 C) again, radishes should be done, but the other 11 species will carry on. Overseeded into corn in early July, germinated with rain in late July. Data shows little nitrate escaping over winter compared to October-planted covers. Red clover will be a bonus.

This week is National Soil Conservation Week. Our agri-food sector relies on soil, but Canada’s amount of healthy, usable soil continues to decline. We need to make soil health a priority. #CdnSoilWeek19 #AgandRuralMatters #SoilHealth

Attended very informative and useful hands on training on ArcAPEX model at Blackland Research & Extension Center in Temple, TX.

Inspiring and successful visit to Ecole Harrison school to educate kids about agriculture and farming as part of the Agriculture in the Classroom Program. More info aitc.mb.ua
