COST: FREE! This program will be offered at no charge for the entire trial season. If you're satisfied with the service provided, voluntary donations at the end of the season would be greatly appreciated. LIMITED AVAILABILITY Only 1–2 companies will be selected to participate in this initial trial program. INTERESTED IN PARTICIPATING? Please send a direct message including: 1. Company name. 2.

Yep, cause us dairy farmers are an intimidating bunch 🙄
This was me, almost two years ago...⬇️ Testifying against the bill intended to shield Canada’s dairy sector from trade negotiations with President Trump. We are about to discover that the law adopted in 2025 is worthless. Ottawa will make concessions—and then send dairy farmers another round of compensation cheques. And yes, note all the dairy farmers sitting behind me for intimidation purposes, of course.

Letting the #horsch stretch her legs in some edible beans. I know it’s a flat field but I wouldn’t trust the deere boom trac at that speed. Horsch boom control is pretty impressive. @HorschOntario @LowBoomLowDrift @Willmorris7Will

Really question the difference in water volumes with ground rigs vs drones. I went through 14000gal yesterday and all the drone guys are running around with 1000L totes. I know which coverage I prefer… #horsch

All tucked away and covered before the rain. Looking forward to seeing how it feeds out. #ontag
Final touches on the bunk and that’s a wrap. The life of a custom operator, do whatever it takes to get done! Nice chunk of feed in. Now to get it covered. #ontag

Long night of chopping ahead. A good drying day today put it a bit on the dry side. Averaging just over 6mt/ac with spots as high as 10.5mt/ac. Very happy with how the field turned out so far. #ontag
