Final Mile Tent

Join us for engaging workshops showcasing practical innovations for Alberta producers.

The afternoon features a Drone Demonstration with Markus Weber of LandView Drones, answering real-world questions on cover crop seeding, perennial hay seeding, and split nitrogen fertilizer application. Pasture water pipeline tips and tricks for planning, pipe selection, and winter preparation with Barry Irving. Plus, hear directly from Alberta ranchers Mike Hittinger and Jerry Baerg about their virtual fencing experience using both Halter and Gallagher eShepherd systems; learn from their firsthand insights to see how virtual fencing works on the ground.

PREP will be hosting a booth at Round‑Up to share information about funding opportunities for on‑farm research. Producers can learn how funding is available to support on‑farm trials that evaluate the feasibility and impact of new production practices, technologies, or products under real farm conditions. This opportunity helps producers generate meaningful, farm‑specific data to support informed decision‑making while advancing profitability, competitiveness, and sustainability. Stop by the PREP booth to learn how you can turn your ideas into practical, research‑driven results.
