"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

I’m running a 620 Quad trac with pro 700 and Centerpoint RTX. It works perfect for a while, and then all of a sudden it starts to go crooked on screen and then this, and autosteer cuts out due to cross track error. Info on x30 display from same source seems ok. Any ideas?

The ability to manage excess water is the most valuable tool I have on my farm. On a wet spring, its even more apparent. A SaskFSA membership of $0.10/ac is a no brainer to make sure my water mgmt needs are heard at the govt policy table! #bestwhenmanaged
Water DRIVES agriculture. 🌱 DRAINAGE is a critical business risk management tool for #SKAG. SHARE your #bestwhenmanaged photos with us. Water mgmt for soil health, crop health, field efficiency, economics & sustainability. What works? What doesn’t? #saskfsa
