Weeds and Weed Seedling Display in Manitoba Fields
Manitoba farmers face tough conditions as dry years intensify weed pressure. Stinkweed and wild buckwheat seedling displays illustrate identification and control options.

Canada moves to boost export sales of purebred cattle

In 1978 live animals semen and embryos sold about 43 million with US buyers making 35 percent. Transportation and shipping costs hinder overseas shipments.
