  • Manitoba has some of the most fertile soil in the world but farmers still have to be attentive to their crops. They work long hours during their limited growing season with hopes of great harvest. Here's a segment from Prairie Public's Documentary series "Built On Agriculture".
    Production funding provided by the Minnesota Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund and by the members of Prairie Public.
    About the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund
    In 2008, Minnesota voters passed a landmark piece of legislation - the Minnesota Clean Water, Land, and Legacy Amendment - which provided funding to public television stations serving audiences in Minnesota. Its mission is to help preserve and document the treasures of culture, history, and heritage that make Minnesota special, and to increase access to the natural and cultural resources we all share.

    I wish the people in urban areas could appreciate the risks that farmers are willing to take to provide them with the food they take for granted. Great video. Congrats to the Manitoba farmers from those of us in Ontario.

      Every crop takes nutrients from the soil. The challenge for arable farmers is how to put those nutrients back.

    The United States, Canada and Europa only have one crop per year, it would be better if it were like here in Brazil the use of seasons is 100%, the problem is the rulers! There was a time when were three harvests a year but, the ministry of agriculture prohibited, four months is very limited, our climate is good, excellent !!

      Much of Canada and the USA are literally frozen for over half the year. The problem is not the rulers, it's the climate. Impossible to grow anything when it's -30°C and snow on the ground.

    Breaks my heart. I grew up on a small grain farm, we had a couple cows, chickens, pigs and a garden big enough to feed a family of 6. Not herbicides, pesticides or fertilizers. Today fertilizers are killing the lakes and waterways, non essential processed carbohydrates (cereals), corn syrups and plant oils in our foods cause food addiction and chronic diseases. If it weren't for the development and marketing of breakfast food by Seventh Day Adventists to curb masturbation and the criminal Ansel Keyes not likely to be in the health mess we find ourselves in.

    It’s not good practice to have huge swathes of the same crop, the land needs to be planted with variety. Look at nature, different growth and varying terrain slows down the advancement of disease and damage by pests. Too much of one crop requires too much spraying of pesticides which in turn causes huge damage to the ecosystem.
