Great day for the 75th RIdgetown Santa Claus parade. Great job from Susan and Matt putting together the @SWAgromart entry. Get out and support your local parade.

A great day to take off a @SWAgromart soybean plot in SW Chatham Kent ahead of tomorrows rain with cooperator @Ochee_C and @RyanSnobelen from @PRIDESeeds. Excellent yields across the plot with an average of 68.0 bu/ac

And that’s a wrap! The last @SWAgromart soybean plot of 2023 is in the ground and the books! Great conditions to get some @PRIDESeeds and @NKSeeds in the ground. Thanks to cooperator @Ochee_C and @murdoch_steph for making the day go quick.

Spent the “cooler” parts of the days this week getting the finishing touches on the @SWAgromart seed demo plots. This summer, hope to get actual producers out to see some @PRIDESeeds and @NKSeeds hybrids and varieties as well as some @BASFAgSolutions fungicide demos.

Got the first @SWAgromart corn plot of the season in yestaerday. Great planting conditions (soil temp at 17C) for some great @PRIDESeeds and @NKSeeds hybrids. Thanks to the best “vac man” in the business, @chapple_mc for the help

Dec 16, ground surprisingly “fit”, most hybrids sort of upright, 16C, 70 km/h wind and snow forecast for Saturday. Sounds like the perfect day to take off the last corn plot of 2021. @SWAgromart @PRIDESeeds @NKSeedsCanada
