"The modern combine harvester, or simply combine, is a versatile machine designed to efficiently harvest a variety of grain crops. The name derives from its combining three separate harvesting operations—reaping, threshing, and winnowing—into a single process. Among the crops harvested with a combine are wheat, oats, rye, barley, corn (maize), sorghum, soybeans, flax (linseed), sunflowers, and canola. The separated straw, left lying on the field, comprises the stems and any remaining leaves of the crop with limited nutrients left in it: the straw is then either chopped, spread on the field and plowed back in or baled for bedding and limited feed for livestock.

Combine harvesters are one of the most economically important labour-saving inventions, significantly reducing the fraction of the population engaged in agriculture."

This video focuses on the functions and features of a John Deere air seeder. It was used to show field crop equipment advances.

How does climate change affect agriculture? A changing climate makes growing conditions more difficult. This video by Syngenta talks specifically about how soil impacts agriculture and how soil improvements will be key to agriculture with climate change.

High-tech hydroponic urban farming is making a case for itself as a made-in-Canada solution for food stability. It's safe, organic, and scalable, and it could become a new source of food security in isolated communities and major cities.
This video from CBC News looks at how hydroponic farming is being used.

Students will be able to connect their knowledge of pH to real life agricultural applications, and understand the importance of pH requirements for Iowa crops.

Grain farmer Jeff Frey has used no-till on his 700-acre farm in Willow Street, Penn., since the 1980s. Despite these efforts, Frey knew he needed to do more to protect his soil from erosion. Recently, he worked with Sjoerd Duiker, associate professor of soil management at Penn State University, on a SARE grant designed to promote cover crops on grain and vegetable farms in their state. His story demonstrates that SARE grants encourage farmers and researchers to partner with each other to advance the adoption of sustainable agriculture practices.
