Part of the Getting into the Weeds: Farming in a Tight Year webinar series, join Perennia’s Vegetable Specialist, Tim Morcom, for the upcoming session Optimizing On-Farm Efficiency – Labour, Time and Equipment. 

Session Description

In this session, the team will discuss how producers have improved their on-farm efficiency and profitability with a focus on ‘systems’ thinking. We will understand how these inefficiencies were addressed through equipment and production improvements with a discussion on measuring production targets, so you know if you’re moving in the right direction.
