The AgConnexion digital platform is an essential tool that helps farmers analyze the data collected in a given growing season. With this analysis, farmers can better plan for their next season and make the right decisions at the right time.

First, it is important to take the time to transfer your data from your GPS data sensor to the AgConnexion | SmartFarm module so that you can conduct the analysis.

In our continued efforts to develop our technological capabilities to support farmers, our digital platform AgConnexion is launching the AgConnexion | Grain Portal.

Designed to facilitate grain merchandising, this new tool is being rolled out gradually at various cooperatives in Québec.

Analyzing soil in the field with a smart probe may not be such a distant dream after all. For some time now, staff at the Sollio Agriculture crop production research farm in Saint-Hyacinthe have been testing a probe from ChrysaLabs that could be used to adjust farming practices quickly and improve crop fertilization.

For the past two years, members of the research farm’s team have been lugging ChrysaLabs’ futuristic-looking, smart soil-analysis probe around their plots.

Farm businesses have many avenues to reduce their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, including soil management, farming and breeding practices, and the recycling of manure and organic waste. Sollio Agriculture is currently investigating how farmers can benefit by earning carbon credits for adopting these practices.

The new AgConnexion | Grain Portal Toolbox gives farmers quick access to market trends and prices.

In the Grain Information Toolbox, you’ll find the "Market zone and prices that are associated with the farm" and "Flash Marché". These two tools help grain farmers make decisions and facilitate contact with Sollio & Grains Québec’s regional grain merchants.

World First Aid Day is the perfect opportunity to highlight the everyday contribution of first aid teams. They are – literally – vital in ensuring that all Sollio Agriculture employees feel safe. Sometimes, they even save lives.
 

This story about Sylvain Villeneuve is a prime example. In January 2023, the forklift operator trainer at the Sollio Agriculture distribution centre in Longueuil started feeling abdominal and chest pains during his afternoon break.

Heavy and frequent rains come with a fair share of problems for hay farmers and horse owners. With harvests delayed week after week and limited drying time, forage can become less nutritious and less healthful. Below, you’ll find some tips and possible solutions for dealing with this issue.

Genetic engineering has made it possible to introduce different technologies into soybean cultivars to manage complex weed control situations.
 

In our era of sustainable agriculture and climate change, the increase in areas under direct seeding and reduced tillage with dethatchers has led to some weeds becoming more established in the field.
