4 days ago | farmtario.com | John Greig

Buyers are aggressively looking to purchase Canadian pigs, despite the increased risk of tariffs when exporting pigs to the United States. The protein market has tightened in the U.S., and American buyers had a booth and were circulating looking for Canadian finishing pigs and weaners at the Ontario Pork Congress in Stratford last week.

5 days ago | farmtario.com | Scott Garvey

Look for an updated machinery line of equipment from CNH’s two brands, New Holland and Case IH, to debut soon for the 2026 model year.

Milk permeate could be an energy drink for transition cows

5 days ago | farmtario.com | John Greig

Milk permeate could be an option to feed to transition dairy cows, but the logistics of moving or processing it on a farm will make its adoption a challenge. Physiological and metabolic changes in cows as they approach calving and in the few weeks after are significant and feeding appropriate nutrition to cows is difficult as they are often in negative energy balance.

New research continues to qualify the cost of heat stress on dairy cattle. Impacts, from a decline in milk and components production to effects on reproduction, mean that heat stress costs farmers money. Why it matters: The number of warm and humid days is increasing in eastern Canada, which will mean greater heat stress for dairy cows. If temperature trends continue, heat stress could cost farmers about $9 per hectolitre by 2049, says Veronique Ouilet, an assistant professor at Laval University.

Exeter Produce’s focus is in its name, but it’s pivoting to poultry to grow the business for the next generation. Mike and Jim Veri run the company started by their father, with several of their children now involved.
