Out & About
Many of our team members are spread across the Prairies this week, with several of our grain buyers, chemical representatives, and soil specialists attending AgriVisions in Lloydminster. At the same time, members of the Johnstons Regenerative team are representing us at the SaskSoil Soil Health Conference in Saskatoon. Trade shows and conferences are always valuable opportunities, allowing us to stay closely connected to the latest developments both on and off the farm. They provide a forum to exchange ideas with producers, researchers, suppliers, and industry partners while gaining firsthand insight into emerging trends, technologies, and market shifts. These events also create space for meaningful conversations about the challenges facing agriculture today and the practical solutions being implemented across the Prairies. Staying engaged in these settings ensures we continue to bring timely information, innovative products, and informed strategies back to the farms and communities we serve.

Johnstons Connected Trading Platform
The Johnstons Connected platform continues to demonstrate its value for both buyers and producers—most recently for corn growers in Manitoba. Since the start of the year, and especially over the past month, the Target Platform has been working on behalf of farmers, generating offers and successfully executing trades while they focus on other priorities.
Several of these offers were above market, and by listing them on the platform, they gained significant exposure—creating strong results for all parties involved. We currently have the following grain on the platform for sale:

Impending Gopher Season
As we approach spring, timing is critical when it comes to managing gophers. These pests emerge from hibernation early in the season and begin breeding shortly after, meaning early, proactive control can significantly reduce in-crop pressure later on.
If spending long days shooting isn’t practical or efficient, there’s another effective option. Our rolled zinc phosphide bait is a proven solution and remains one of the most reliable control tools available since the loss of strychnine. We have ample supply available for pickup or can coordinate delivery with your next chemical order.
If you have field access, now is the time to scout and act—before breeding begins and populations expand. We are currently offering 22 kg bags at $179 per bag. For more information or to place an order, please reach out to your trusted broker at Johnstons Grain: 1.844.324.7778
NEW PRICING OPPORTUNITY IN TSP (TRIPLE SUPERPHOSPHATE)
Most suppliers of fertilizer in Western Canada have been increasing prices on Nitrogen and Phosphate and other forms of synthetic fertility. Here at Johnston’s, we’re pleased to announce a price improvement on our TSP fertilizer.
NEW PRICE: $1150/t del’d to farm in AB, SK and MB.
TSP is a premium granular phosphate fertilizer containing 46% P205, and 15% Calcium (a critical nutrient that most soils are deficient in). Other key features include:
10-12 on the fertilizer salt index vs. MAP which is 30-32
Soil structure building
Water holding capacity building
Easier on biology than competing products
And… much more. Reply to this email with “TSP vs. MAP Information Package” to receive a comprehensive side-by-side comparison outlining the key differences between TSP and MAP.
New-Crop Pricing
All prices are FOB Farm and will have an Act of God provision (AOG), reach out to your trusted broker at Johnstons Grain for more information & stay tuned for more offers!
