"Saskatchewan agriculture is recognized for leading innovation and producing some of the least carbon-intensive crops in the world. We will continue to contribute to a lower carbon footprint through research and applied management. SaskFSA supports the government's decision to remove the carbon tax to benefit all citizens of Saskatchewan." - Myles Thorpe, President - Saskatchewan Farm Stewardship Association

Want to fix salinity? Manage the water! Pretty simple. This area was so saline that it never grew anything consistently. Managed the water flow and now it’s a top performing area. #bestwhenmanaged

Comparing salinity levels on 2 fields that had tile drainage put in 5-6 years ago. Those zone 5/6’s alone (1.93 & 2.82) that are no longer saline = 372 ac of significantly improved yields

To help get P week off to a good start, Laura Rance’s article in yesterday’s Winnipeg Free Press did a great job of explaining how everyone has a role in long term stewardship of P ... it’s not just for farmers & it’s not just for city residents, either.
