High hopes for hemp, closing the farm labour gap, precipitation jubilation… and frustration

Andrea Eriksson with NorQuest College on the exceptional versatility of hemp and its growing potential – and production particulars – for growers on the Prairies, Lorraine Stevenson of Country Guide reports on Canada’s farm labour shortage and what’s being done to address the widening gap, and Bruce Burnett of MarketsFarm discusses how rain on the Prairies is being welcomed, but in Ontario and in the U.S. precipitation levels are dishing out muddy fields and dashing planting hopes.
