This harvest season, many producers across Canada are navigating rain delays, quality losses, and financial uncertainty. Five ways to navigate a season of loss and grief:
1) A difficult harvest is a real loss, and grief is a reasonable response.
2) Acknowledge the season before moving on
3) Talk to those around you about what's happening
4) Use your body as a guide for how you're doing.
5) Find understanding in shared experience

@SeCan members have $1.7 billion invested in seed infrastructure, says Jeff Reid.
How can we grow an independent industry that doesn't have the same budgets as the multinationals?
Invest smarter, together.

Lower yields, lower royalties. Successful varieties, more funding for future breeding.
Could end point royalties work for Canada?
Sarah Weigum of Alect Seeds makes the case.

A failed crop can cost a farmer millions.
Breeding programs can spend millions on varieties growers never adopt.
Kelly Barany of @chinridge says farmers and breeders can reduce both risks by talking earlier about what a variety needs to do.
