Ag Canada launches new internet tool for farmers

Agriculture Canada has launched a new internet tool to help farmers take the guesswork out of crop yields.

The manager of National Agroclimate information Services for Agriculture Canada, Catherine Champagne, says the user-friendly web tool uses data on interactive maps to provide crop yield estimates during the growing season.

Champagne says yield forecasts are adjusted throughout the growing season, taking into account changing weather conditions.

Champagne says the information is a great planning tool for farmers and agronomists.
