  • Deep Ripping in Saskatchewan, Results from 12 Sites
    DEEP RIPPING IN SASKATCHEWAN, RESULTS FROM 12 SITES by Mike Gravers Department of Soil Science Saskatchewan Institute of Pedology University of Saskatchewan This work is supported by : Agriculture Development Fund INTRODUCTION Deep ripping and/or paraplowing has received much attention in the media over the past 3 years. Deep ripping has been practiced in Alberta with some degree of success (Aiubadi and Webster, 1982; Bole, 1986; Lavado and Cairns, 1980). The work in Alberta involves solonetzic soils where impervious Bnt horizons restrict water, air and root penetration. Deep ripping in this case is considered an alternative to deep plowing, which is a considerably more expensive operation. In Saskatchewan, soil disturbance from the installation of pipelines has been found to increase soil productivity of solonetzic soils (De Jong and Button, 1973). Talk amongst the farm community in Saskatchewan regarding the Alberta experience with deep ripping and the pipeline phenomena has led to a number of inquiries by farmers about the feasibility of deep ripping in their areas. This study was set up to investigate the potential for deep ripping- in Saskatchewan under a variety of soil and climatic conditions. A deep tillage project was initiated in the fall of 1985 and this report represents year 2 of the research. Results from year 1 were reported at the 1987 Soils & Crops Workshop (Gravers and Tanner, 1987). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 12 farm sites are included in the study, involving both deep ripping, ranging in depth from 18" to 30" and paraplowing to a depth of 20". The kind of soils and the year and depth of deep tillage operations are listed in Table I.

  • Saskatchewan Birding Trail Experience (Pdf)
    askatchewan has a wealth of birdwatching opportunities ranging from the fall migration of waterfowl to the spring rush of songbirds and shorebirds. It is our hope that this Birding Trail Guide will help you find and enjoy the many birding Slocations in our province. Some of our Birding Trail sites offer you a chance to see endangered species such as Piping Plovers, Sage Grouse, Burrowing Owls, and even the Whooping Crane as it stops over in Saskatchewan during its spring and fall migrations. Saskatchewan is comprised of four distinct eco-zones, from rolling prairie to dense forest. Micro-environments are as varied as the bird-life, ranging from active sand dunes and badlands to marshes and swamps. Over 350 bird species can be found in the province. Southwestern Saskatchewan represents the core of the range of grassland birds like Baird's Sparrow and Sprague's Pipit. The mixed wood boreal forest in northern Saskatchewan supports some of the highest bird species diversity in North America, including Connecticut Warbler and Boreal Chickadee. More than 15 species of shorebirds nest in the province while others stop over briefly en-route to their breeding grounds in Arctic Canada. Chaplin Lake and the Quill Lakes are the two anchor bird watching sites in our province. These sites are conveniently located on Saskatchewan's two major highways, the Trans-Canada #1 and Yellowhead #16. Both are excellent birding areas! Oh! ....... don't forget, birdwatching in Saskatchewan is a year round activity. While migration provides a tremendous opportunity to see vast numbers of birds, winter birding offers you an incomparable opportunity to view many species of owls and woodpeckers and other Arctic residents such as Gyrfalcons, Snowy Owls and massive flocks of Snow Buntings.

  • GREETINGS from YOUR EDUCATION SECTOR VP Brothers and Sisters, at the Close of This Academic Year, We Have Four Sector Units Bargaining New Collective Agreements
    GREETINGS FROM YOUR EDUCATION SECTOR VP Brothers and Sisters, At the close of this academic year, we have four sector units bargaining new collective agreements. This includes the Gabriel Dumont Institute, Northlands College, all the Regional Colleges, and the Professional Services Bargaining Unit at Saskatchewan Polytechnic. As we start our summer vacations we need to keep in mind that this time off is a negotiated right, and that we may be called on to defend these and other collective agreement rights. The Saskatchewan Party government’s directive to reduce total compensation for all public sector workers by 3.5% includes our workplaces. Your bargaining committees are taking a strong stand to resist this directive during bargaining. Members can help by participating in solidarity activities in order to send a message to our employers that we will not accept pay cuts and takeaways—and we support our bargaining team. A strong united stand is the only way to ensure that management and the government get this message. This month we ask that you participate in the social media selfie challenge described below. Why say no to a 3.5% cut? Government financial mismanagement is the cause of our current budget deficit— not the frontline workers who provide quality public services and perform important functions in our educational institutions. So why are we expected to pay to fix it? I hope you have a safe and relaxing vacation break—and remember to attend any rallies or demonstrations in your area that will send the message to our government that cuts to the public sector and public services are not acceptable.
