Raised beds provide access to fresh food, even organic veggies and fruits if you choose, for a fraction of grocery store prices.

"We're bringing over 20 new products... in the adjuvant space, the crop protection space, seed treatment, as well as the plant nutrition space," Walker states, emphasizing the significant volume of innovations for the upcoming year.

Kochia continues to spread beyond its traditional areas, bringing resistance to multiple herbicide groups. This shift may require growers to rethink their canola systems, including variety selection.

The Blue Book is built around accessibility and practicality for producers managing multiple products and tight timelines. It pulls key information from product labels—such as rainfastness, re-entry intervals, and mixing instructions—and presents it in a more usable format, almost like taking the label and shrinking it into a couple of pages so that it's easy to read.

In Cabranes, Asturias, Atelier Poem has realized the Taller Agropoetico for Foresta Collective—a space that integrates agricultural practice with pedagogy.

It can drive through the field and look at every square inch. We really honed our craft on model performance and detection with rocks, and now we've transitioned that into weeds. The robot uses a boom-mounted camera system to capture detailed imagery across the field. With eight cameras operating at 1 millimetre resolution, TerraScout can generate billions of data points per acre, allowing it to identify specific objects, including individual weeds.

Nearly half of the world's traded urea—the most widely used fertiliser—and large volumes of other fertilisers are exported from Gulf countries via the Strait of Hormuz, making global agriculture highly exposed to any disruption there. Recent disruptions to gas supplies and shipping have already forced fertiliser plants, which use natural gas to manufacture fertiliser, in the Gulf and beyond to shut or cut their output.

This is the latest addition to the SoilStar family... it's using the same tried and true frame as our previous model... but this eliminates the coulter discs... and it's a seven bar tine harrow. The combination allows for increased agitation up front and more flexibility at the back, helping to achieve a more even spread of material.

That number represents roughly 7% of the state's land and waters. It also corresponds with the amount of land the federal government promised it would hold as reservations for Indigenous tribes after California joined the union in 1850. Congress ultimately rejected these treaties in a secret meeting - after pressure from the state - and failed to notify tribes, many of whom upheld their end of the agreement to relocate.

In Turkana, the land is rugged, roads disappear into dust, and villages are scattered across vast distances in a county of just more than a million people. Despite it being the rainy season, weather experts warn that Turkana and other arid regions may receive little relief. Authorities say drought is once again taking place, with 23 of Kenya's 47 counties affected.

For 30 years, InVigor hybrid canola has played a central role in advancing productivity and performance for canola growers around the world. This facility expansion marks the next chapter in that legacy, enhancing breeding capacity, integrating advanced automation, and accelerating the development of new hybrids.

Garden angelica, Angelica archangelica, belongs to the Apiaceae family, the same botanical group as carrots, celery, fennel, and parsley. Like its relatives, it produces a large, distinctively umbrella-shaped inflorescence, or flower cluster, called umbels. In its first year, the plant forms a lower mound of bright green leaves. In the second, a thick, hollow stem shoots upward and unfurls the broad green flower heads that resemble wild carrot or Queen Anne's Lace.

The input planning calculator is a robust tool that can help farmers and agronomists better understand on-farm finances while helping uncover which crops make the most sense to plant from a cost perspective. By inputting key on-farm financial and agronomic data, including seed and agronomy service costs, growers can compare each crop on their farm and explore their true cost of production.
