  • Hi and Welcome to the podcast! My name is Chantel McRae and I will be your host. I started working for MBFI in January of 2022 as an Extension Specialist with the goal of increasing awareness and information regarding the projects and important research happening at MBFI. One of the ways we have decided to do that is through a podcast that shares information on the research projects that are being conducted here, as well as extension events and on farm practices and technologies. MBFI is a not for profit organization developed through partnership with Manitoba Agriculture, Manitoba Beef Producers, Ducks Unlimited Canada and the Manitoba Forage and Grassland Association with direction from stakeholders collaborating for the advancement of the industry. MBFI’s mission is to advance the Manitoba beef and forage industry by engaging stakeholders, evaluating on-farm innovation, and extension for sustainability of farmers, the public and the environment. In short we Engage, Evaluate and Extend. MBFI’s Goal is to promote excellence, efficiency, and sustainability of practice in the agricultural industry in Manitoba for the dual benefit of the public and the environment by conducting on-farm research and field testing of practices related to beef cattle and forage production and disseminating the results to farmers and the public, as well as through providing hands-on learning opportunities and work placements for the development of professionals entering beef cattle and forage production. We will be sharing information through interviews with General Manager, Mary Jane Orr, project leads for various projects, MBFI team members, speakers from our extension events, industry leaders and industry suppliers. This podcast will dig deep into on-farm research and field testing practices related to beef cattle and forage production and efficiency and sustainability of practice in the agricultural industry in Manitoba. We will be sharing information on upcoming training and workshops, field and farm demonstration tours, education materials and events at MBFI, as well as producer profiles from around the province and information on their own trials, challenges, innovation and results.

  • ALUS Growing Roots Program with Joey Pankiw (SRRWD)

    ALUS Growing Roots Program with Joey Pankiw (SRRWD)
    2025/03/05

    Joey Pankiw grew up on a family farm in the Red River Valley. Joey is a graduate from the University of Winnipeg with a B.A. in Geography, and obtained a MSc. in Geography from the University of Regina. He started working with the Seine Rat Roseau Watershed District in 2019 as a Watershed Assistant and also held the ALUS/Grow Coordinator position before becoming District Manager in 2022.

    In today’s episode, Joey gives us an overview of what the ALUS Growing Roots program is and what the goals of this program are. He describes the thought process behind the moto “Farm the best, leave the rest” in relation to the Cultivated Cropland aspect of the project, which aims to improve water quality by reducing nutrient run off, reduce soil erosion, provide carbon sequestration and provide wildlife and pollinator habitat. Joey also discusses the changes they are seeing in areas where this program has been implemented and what impacts this has to the environment.

    Along with the Cultivated Cropland aspect of the program, Joey shares information about the Class 4 and Class 5 Forage/Grazing Land programs, including the annual payment, contract length and amount SRRWD pays towards the establishment cost of these forages.

    He wraps up with some information on other programs that are available in this watershed district, including the Preservation Project and The Pasture Riparian Fencing Project.

    For more information about the programs available in your watershed, contact your local watershed district today.

    Hiring Farm Workers with Justin Girard (Young Agrarians)
    2025/02/19

    Justin Girard is the Manitoba Program Manager for Young Agrarians, a peer to peer educational resource network for new, young and aspiring farmers. He is also the team lead for the Young Agrarians Apprenticeship Program, a program that sets up aspiring farmers with their first farm job and provides support to both the apprentices and the seasoned farmer mentors. Justin grew up on a farm, worked on farms, and farmed himself and is excited to help carve out opportunities for the next generation of land stewards.

    In this episode, Justin tells us what Young Agrarians is and the missions and goals of this very farmer education focused organization. He also shares about his role and some tasks within the Manitoba section of YA.

    One of these roles has to do with the Apprenticeship Program through YA, and Justin shares how this program works, the number of farms included in the program for 2025 and how farms can be involved.

    Young Agrarians offers an array of courses and conferences. Today, we are focusing specifically on the “How to Hire Farm Workers Course.” This program discusses human resources on the farm from creating job ads, to the hiring process, retaining great employees and working together on the farm. The course also discusses onboarding, skills training, communication and farm culture.

    Carson Callum is the General Manager with Manitoba Beef Producers. Carson joined MBP in 2019, and comes with an extension background in agriculture. He has a Master’s of Science in Agriculture, specifically related to beef cattle. Carson has worked in many areas of the ag sector, and the beef industry is near and dear to him. He grew up on a small beef farm south of Miami Manitoba. He now lives in Winnipeg with his family, which includes his wife Britni, and sons Cohen and Sullivan. Carson admits his favorite role in life is fatherhood, but sure enjoys working on behalf of the beef industry as well.

    Today we are chatting about livestock inspection and traceability in Manitoba. Carson shares what the proposed system looks like in Manitoba and when producers could expect implementation to occur. He also tells us about the process, cost and what paperwork will be included with this change.

    We also chat about the current holes in the traceability and inspection system in Manitoba, and the reasoning behind making this change. We chat specifically about cattle theft and fraud, and some tips for producers to protect themselves against animal theft.
