This isn’t Grandma’s split pea soup, #sorrynotsorry! We’ve added fresh ginger, curry & sweet potatoes to our version AND we’re making in the slow cooker so it’s a set it and forget it meal in a bowl!

As a farmer I am FOCUSED on the yield, and working through its justification... 63bu/acre. That's field average across 128 acres - BUT there were sig areas that drowned out so my ACTUAL yield was 85. That feels better.
What I often (always) fail to recognize is that this bag of beans feeds people - real people, a lot of people. Maybe we need to start focusing on that, and communicating that (and writing it large on the side of our grain bags).
I am a farmer. I grow pulses. I am a CRITICAL contributor to nutritional security.
And that concludes todays Grain Bag School, you are dismissed :)

What are you most looking forward to at CrossRoads 2027?
Maybe it’s hearing a new perspective from the stage, finding practical ideas you can take back to the farm, catching up with people you know, or meeting someone new.

Innovate today. Nourish tomorrow. That is the theme for World Food Day (WFD) this year. Pulses like dry peas, lentils, dry beans & chickpeas are a great source of protein, fibre, iron, potassium & healthy complex carbohydrates, a perfect fit to celebrate WFD! Where are you adding pulses today?
