14 From Seeding to Sale
Peter Johnson told farmers at
Grey Bruce Farmers Week
how to get better yields,
beginning right with seeding
time. Cal Whewell told them
how to market what they'd
grown.
20 Experimenting
Most farmers these days just
buy seed in a bag. Some
farmers, however, are doing
their own plant breeding.
They might just create
exciting discoveries.
24 The way we were
When you've farmed more
than 50 years you've seen
plenty of changes in farming,
and in rural life. Dorine and
Ralph McGuire recall the vast
changes since they began
farming in Grey County.
34 Say thanks
Dr. Gord Surgeoner says
farmers should start a
program of saying thanks to
consumers for buying their
products — and letting them
know what value they're
getting.
