Great day in #OntAg for spraying some #Lontrel on corn with Pioneer Seeds Canada #YieldChampionsClub member McDon Osie Farms (Maggie McDonnell). Exciting to see the corn really starting to jump! Even more exciting to see it being kept clean through critical weed free period!

I’ve got a new rule for my kids this summer. I call it the #SnoopDogg rule: “No seeds, no stems, no sticks”[& no small rocks] brought into the house or vehicles. Rest assured there will still be enough summer treats to leave them “real sticky icky icky”. #toddlerlife

I love IP #Soybean growers. They take pride in managing fields - but eventually the system still breaks. These fields are side by side - both are great varieties. Is this weed pressure worth the IP premium? Agronomically NO! It’s time for #E3 in-crop herbicide technology.

#OntAg can we stop marketing questionable data comparing aggregate yields between tech segments in beans? 3.7+ bu, 2.2+ bu Bla Bla... It’s RR2X burndown tech (see picture) vs #Enist #E3 in-crop tech. Thats the conversation. Problem weeds require in-crop options period.

Spent the AM with Pioneer Seeds Canada Sales Reps in our pocket of #OntAg doing a corn grid. 17 plots & 20+ hybrids from 82-107D. In depth discussion on agronomics and encouraging obs of yield potential, good plant health, & excellent #TarSpot performance from the Pioneer hybrids.

Today’s the day! Been following this #YieldChampionsClub field all season with McDon Osie Farms Maggie McDonnell. Excited to weight it off and see what kinda yields we’ve achieved with Pioneer Seeds Canada

April 24th & the #Plant25 itch is worse than poison ivy in #OntAg . Here’s a few reminders: 1) Soil fitness is critical! 2) Be on top of the weather forecast, especially cold rains. 3) Take your time getting started. Get off the tractor and ✅✅✅the youtu.be/C2CnA4Uvg9A?si…

The forecasted threat of potential agent of “AgroTerrorism” Fusarium graminearum (FHB or Head Scab) is high across many winter wheat growing areas including #OntAg. Get a T3 fungicide on this year! For those with stripe rust spray decisions get stressful. Ask a #CCA for help.

It’s Friday the 13th, why not share my thoughts on horrifying pathogens? While early, #OntAg needs to start thinking (NOT Panicking!) about #TarSpot. Shoutout Darcy Telenko and her team for spotting the first stroma this week in Indiana and alerting us! youtu.be/W88zn0weLEs?fe…

As post emergent soybean spraying ramps up remember to follow proper mixing order with Enlist 1 herbicide. It is CRUCIAL to follow proper mixing order to avoid chemicals salting out in the tank. Never mix Enlist 1 and Glyphosate concentrates together!

Here is a visual for why it’s CRUCIAL to follow proper mixing procedures when using Enlist 1 chemistry on your Enlist traited soybeans and corn #spraysafe Pioneer Seeds Canada

In #OntAg too often challenges get lifted high and successes ignored. #striperust is an issue in 2025 no debate.... BUT WOW do fields with a T1/T1.5/or T2 fungicide and follow up T3 look impressive! R29 R64 and R65 all proving to be powerhouses when managed well.

Out scouting a Corteva Canada Biologicals by Variety trial on wheat last Friday... couldn't help but also be impressed by the #YieldHeroEast corn from McDon OSie Farms across the road. P9823Q looking amazing!
