AGGronomyTV: The 4Rs and the environment
Nov 1 to 15: The federal government is asking farmers to implement voluntary targets to help reduce nitrous oxide emissions in crop production. Thankfully, there are ways to help growers accomplish this, not the least of which are implementing the 4R’s (right source, right rate, right time, and right place) when it comes to applying fertilizer to field crops. At the EMILI field day near Grosse Isle, Manitoba, this past summer, Mario Tenuta with the University of Manitoba spoke about the emissions reduction initiative, what’s missing on the Prairies when it comes to the 4Rs, and field research that showed the difference in nitrous oxide emissions between shallow- and deep-banded fertilizer in canola.

With such a valuable co-worker at the side of crop growers it's right to ask, just how healthy are these hard-working honeybee populations? In this video from Crop Diagnostic School recorded this past summer, Derek Micholson, apiarist with Manitoba Agriculture, provides an update to Manitoba's bee populations and shares how people can help pollinator populations thrive.
