Fertilizer supply chains have been anything but stable this year. For many growers, that makes on-farm storage not just a convenience, but a strategic advantage. But storing fertilizer isn't as simple as putting it in a bin and forgetting about it. So how do you preserve its quality over time, especially in humid conditions?   Find out on this episode of The Dirt with your host, Mike Howell, and Nutrien Senior Agronomist, Lyle Cowell. Join them as they explore the real-world challenges and benefits of fertilizer storage, from managing product blends and minimizing moisture risks to equipment and application considerations.   You'll learn how and why fertilizers clump, the two primary ways they absorb moisture, how to prevent moisture absorption and what simple steps can make a big difference in fertilizer storability, flowability and safety, particularly in Western Canada.   Looking for the latest in crop nutrition research?

This week on The American Family Farmer, host Doug Stephan welcomes Warren Eckstein, Pet Behaviorst and Host of The Pet Show. The discussion starts off dispelling the false concept that animals don't share many of the emotions humans have, but also the beautiful friendship and comradely we have with our animal friends and animal family members. When summer temperatures soar, it's not just humans who suffer — farm animals, barn cats, and loyal working dogs are all vulnerable to heat stress. This week on the American Family Farmer, host Doug Stephan is joined by internationally renowned pet behaviorist Warren Eckstein to talk about how to keep your animals safe and healthy during extreme heat.From simple solutions like shade and clean water to advanced cooling strategies, Warren shares practical, humane tips every farmer can implement. He also breaks down the critical early warning signs of heatstroke in animals and what to do if your livestock or pets are at risk. Warren's four decades of experience — including working with celebrities and serving as a longtime expert on national TV and radio — make him one of the most trusted voices in animal care. Tune in for a conversation that's as informative as it is heartfelt. Learn more: ThePetShow.com Website: AmericanFamilyFarmerShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

What if we treated safety not as a box to tick, but as a culture to lead?    For Rebecca Fing, this isn't a theoretical question — it's the heart of her life's work. From her base in Goondiwindi, Rebecca and her team at House Paddock Training & Consulting have spent two decades helping farm families lift their game in HR, business strategy, and importantly — work health and safety.    This episode is a full-bodied conversation with someone who's been on over 600 farms and seen it all. Rebecca doesn't just talk compliance — she talks culture. She doesn't just talk paperwork — she talks people.    And the urgency is real. Agriculture employs just 3% of Australia's workforce, yet accounts for 30% of all workplace fatalities. Even more sobering — 75% of those deaths involve machinery. These aren't just numbers. They're reminders that safety isn't something we can afford to “get to later.” Because what's at stake is far too important.    In a world where the urgent often crowds out the important, she makes a powerful case for choosing safety not someday, but today.    We cover:  How to make safety part of your everyday rhythm — not a once-a-year task  Why consistent follow-through matters more than a polished folder on a shelf  How a culture of confidence (not just compliance) can actually save lives  And practical tips on how to make a start today: Google free audits, borrow best practices from other industries, and stop trying to reinvent the wheel.    Rebecca speaks with the kind of clarity and conviction that only comes from lived experience. Her honesty is refreshing, her passion is contagious, and her message is simple: don't wait for a crisis to care.    Whether you're leading a large team or running a family farm, this one will hit home. Because at the end of the day, this isn't about rules — it's about responsibility. And creating a farm culture where everyone gets to go home safe.    Rebecca, thank you for showing us the heart behind the how-to. For reminding us that leading with care is the most powerful form of leadership there is.    To every farm owner listening: make a start. Sloppy success, as Rebecca says, is far better than perfect procrastination.    Keep caring. Keep leading. And keep making farms safer.    Sincerely,    Jeremy Hutchings & the Farm Owners Academy Team

Many farmworkers, particularly those in rural areas, have faced difficulties finding affordable, reliable childcare options due to the demands of farm work, which often includes long, irregular hours. Rural communities often lack sufficient childcare providers, and those that do exist may be too expensive or lack flexibility to accommodate farmers' schedules. Additionally, farm families may have limited access to public childcare assistance programs, as these are often more geared toward urban populations. The intersection of low wages in agricultural labor and limited social services has compounded these issues. Over time, various advocacy groups and policymakers have worked to highlight the need for better childcare access in farm communities, but challenges remain. In this episode, we talk with Dr. Florence Becot, nationwide insurance early career professor in agricultural safety and health and faculty member at Penn State, whose research may shed light on solutions that could reshape how we think about childcare in rural communities.Episode ResourcesLinking Childcare to Farm Children Safety, Marshfield Clinic Research InstituteShort article: ‘Farm families' childcare challenges impacting farm businesses', Penn State UniversityShort article: ‘When and how to safely involve the children on the farm', Penn State University
