A contest is asking prairie producers to explain how winter wheat is important for conservation on their farm, whether it be
conservation of labour, equipment or the environment.
Participants in the Bin Full of Reasons challenge can win one of three 4,100 bushel hopper-mounted grain bins from Behlen Industries.
The contest is part of Ducks Unlimited Canada and Bayer CropScience’s Winter Cereals: Sustainability in Action initiative.
Winter wheat growers can send submissions in writing, video or voice mail message.
Contest winners will be announced at the three Prairie Winter Wheat Producer Commission meetings scheduled during major agricultural trade shows in January:
•Crop Production Week
•Saskatoon, Jan. 9-12
•Manitoba Ag Days, Brandon, Jan. 17-19
•FarmTech, Edmonton, Jan. 24-26 The deadline is Dec. 16.
