With few predators and lots of natural/good fencing, Iceland is the place to be for sheep!

What are some of the different #striptill units out there in southern Ontario that guys are working with? The good the bad? Generally working with clay/loam soil, what model stands apart from the rest? #ontag #soilhealth #covercrops

They're called dry beans for a reason! These black beans are still chugging along. First flowers popping up and leaf hopper pressure still low at the moment. @HDCAgronomy

Missed the rain outside Ailsa Craig today. Wasn't hard to find 2 larvae/stem..
Scouting for weevil? Shaking stems into a white pail makes it so much easier to count larvae.

Wondering how to control those pesky dandelions? This is the difference with fall weed control. Applied 1L glyhphosate and 0.5L 2,4D after soybean harvest. Strips are from an issue with one sprayer nozzle. @HDCAgronomy

Looks like another solid showing for 14-H3. An early variety for wheat planting and great on white mold. Now a Hensall Co-op exclusive and big IP premium for 2022! @HDCAgronomy

Time to take a look at cover crop oats if taking them for feed. Seeing rust starting to show up. Also some select fields with high fall armyworm pressure. @HDCAgronomy @HDCFeed

Another good looking field of Argosy near Thedford! Lots of potential coming into 2nd pass fungicide. Still one of my favorites in our white bean lineup. @HDCAgronomy

Scouted my wheat this weekend with the help of Fieldview. Easy to find and notice the difference in growth throughout the field. Have been tracking it through the season and noticed a pattern..

Seems like mostly a difference in soil type/topography. Rotation also playing a factor. Changed some fields around last year, highlighted in red was 3 years of beans before wheat.

Checked last year's maps as well and found it clear as day. Shows power of crop rotation!
