Go on a tour of a Jason Rempel’s Manitoba wheat farm without leaving the classroom. Students will: • Discover where their food comes from and how it is produced. • Learn about the life cycle of wheat and the conditions needed to grow a healthy wheat crop. • Identify what food and nutrients come from wheat. • Discover why Manitoba’s natural resources are ideal for canola farming. • Discover how a combine harvester, and all the simple machines in it, work to harvest grain. The Livestream recording includes the video and a Q&A with Jason. This is a great companion resource for the Simple Machines are Everywhere on the Farm worksheet.
