Dean’s Message

Greetings. It is my pleasure to re-acquaint you with staff and students – both current and former - who are the Faculty of Agricultural and Food Sciences at the University of Manitoba. Many of them are well known in their fields. Many have won awards. All are valued as people who make a difference in our world. You’ll see what I mean when you read the 50th Annual Progress Review.

A lot has happened on campus during the past year. We are leading the development of the Richardson Centre for Functional Foods and Nutraceuticals in conjunction with Human Ecology, Pharmacy and Medicine. We are planning the Centre for Agroecological Livestock Production Systems – North America’s first facility to study long-term nutrient balance systems. We are opening the Grain Storage Research Centre where scientists will be able to duplicate and study any stored grain situation.

And those are just a few of the more visible research projects. There are many more such as developing increased disease resistance in canola and high erucic acid rapeseed or studying the impact of subacute ruminal acidosis on health and production of dairy cows! Our research is well supported by public and private sources. We are relevant and connected.

And even better news - our undergraduate enrolment in first year rose this past year by 50 percent in Degree and 10 percent in Diploma. Indications are that the trend will continue in the fall of 2004. We know however, that we’re battling a very negative perception of our industry right now – a negativity I don’t share. To help high school students, their parents and teachers understand the opportunities accessed through our Faculty, we will soon launch a novel marketing campaign.

The campaign is based on focus groups of students who told us the word ‘agriculture’ aka farming, gets in the way of their considering our Faculty. Because we know farming is only one important career open to our grads, we’re going to promote the Faculty with a new slogan – It’s not ALL about farming! We hope the new attitude embodied in that line will help us reach our goal to double enrolment in the next five years.

But - someone else will head that initiative because, as of July 1, 2004, I will no longer be Dean of the Faculty of Agricultural and Food Sciences. My replacement, Dr. Michael Trevan, will inherit a team of scientists, educators and administrators ready to support him in the many important accomplishments yet to come. I, however, will miss the daily contact with staff, students and alumni. The five years have been full and rewarding.

Thank you for the privilege of leading these developments and witnessing these outstanding people achieve great things within the University and beyond.

Academic Programs

Biosystems Engineering Enhances Environment, Biomedical Streams

Some significant modifications were made to the undergraduate curriculum in Biosystems Engineering to emphasize the environmental and biomedical streams. These changes included the addition of a human physiology course and a human anatomy course in the core of the Biosystems program, introduction of a technical elective on assistive technologies, and introduction of two technical electives — pollution prevention and soil remediation — in environmental engineering.

Organic Course Offered Online

The Faculty’s first course on organic crop production went online and in the classroom January 2004. “Organic Crop Production on the Prairies” consists of seven modules that address optimum crop production. The course highlights organic crop production principles and practices in both wet and dry areas of the prairies and within the different prairie soil zones. It is available as both a credit and non-credit course.

Syngenta Graduate Awards Announced

Last fall, Syngenta Crop Protection Canada announced a major award to support graduate students at the University of Manitoba. Syngenta gave $100,000 to the Faculty to set up the award, which will be matched by funds from the Manitoba Scholarship and Bursary Initiative. The Syngenta Graduate Scholarship will go to a student working in an area related to sustainable agriculture, specifically environmental quality and resources management, integrated pest management, introduction of new technologies, economic viability and rural community sustainability.

Agribusiness Develops New University 1 Course

The Department of Agribusiness and Agricultural Economics has added another entry to the Faculty’s offering of University 1 level courses. “Economics of World Food Issues and Policies” will provide students with an overview of global food consumption, food security and malnutrition, as well as international trade’s role in balancing world supply and demand.

Industry Demand Drives Agri-Finance Course

At the request of the agri-finance industry in Manitoba, the School of Agriculture is developing an agri-finance program within the two-year Diploma course. With the anticipated financial support of the industry, the School hopes to offer internal and external courses in this topic as of the fall of 2005.

Food Science Program Opportunities in China, Korea

Drs. Greg Blank, Arnie Hydamaka and Jung Han of the Department of Food Science visited several universities in China in late 2003 in conjunction with a trip by Dr. Qiang Zhang of Biosystems Engineering and Dean Harold Bjarnason. Student recruitment was the major topic for discussion. Future agreements to provide the final two years of training in a B.Sc. (Food Science) program were discussed with Nanjing University. Dr. Han also visited two universities in Korea, and Kyungnam University in Masan, South Korea, indicated interest in the development of a “2+2” training program in Food Science leading to a B.Sc. degree for their students from the University of Manitoba.

Research Highlights

Rapeseed/Canola Breeding Program Receives Major Boost

The Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council, CanAmera Foods and the Manitoba Canola Growers Association contributed nearly $3.5 million for the research and development of new and better varieties of canola and high erucic acid rapeseed (HEAR). The investment provides funding for two new industrial research chairs to work in canola and HEAR research and development over the next five years. Plant Science’s Dr. Peter McVetty will serve as senior chair and Dr. Genyi Li was named as the associate chair.

Western Grain Transportation Reform Discussed

In October 2003, the Department of Agribusiness and Agricultural Economics organized a conference exploring the impact of the end of grain transportation subsidies. “The Agricultural Industry After Western Grain Transportation Reform: The Good, the Bad and the Unexpected” was the idea of the late Dr. Daryl Kraft. The conference, dedicated to Daryl's memory, was well attended by representatives of all areas of the grain industry, including producers, producer groups, financial institutions, grain companies, railways, the Canadian Wheat Board, federal and provincial government, and university researchers. The conference was organized with funding assistance from Manitoba Rural Adaptation Council.

Nutraceuticals, Functional Foods Focus of Major Conference

A conference organized by Kelley Fitzpatrick, Richardson Centre for Functional Foods and Nutraceuticals, brought together 200 people in Winnipeg this past fall. “Canada: A Global Innovator in Functional Food Ingredients” included several international speakers and discussion of the research, technical and business development issues related to functional foods and nutraceuticals.

Genomics Data Platform Created

Dr. Brian Fristensky, Plant Science, is one of seven principal investigators on "An Integrated & Distributed Bioinformatics Platform for Genome Canada", a three-year project funded by Genome Prairie. This collaboration will link the regional Genome Canada Centres by developing a dedicated hardware component and software platform, providing a powerful infrastructure for participating researchers and facilitating analysis of genomics data. Brian's part of the project is focused on defining and quantifying biases that exist in biological databases.

Outreach Activities

Agronomists Conference Continues to Grow

The fourth annual Manitoba Agronomists Conference was held in December 2003, with over 200 agronomists in attendance. The conference is sponsored by the University of Manitoba, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada and Manitoba Agriculture, Food and Rural Initiatives, and is a forum where Manitoba agronomists meet to discuss the latest developments and trends in crop production. More than 40 speakers made presentations on pest management, soils, crop management and potato production. The conference proceedings are available online at umanitoba.ca/afs/agron_conf/.

Arborists’ Program Provides Tree Care Accreditation

A record number of 66 students wrote the final exam in spring 2003 to obtain accreditation in the Manitoba Arborists’ Training and Examination Program, offered jointly by the School of Agriculture and Assiniboine Community College. The program leads to accreditation required for obtaining a Manitoba Arborist Licence. As of 2003, this licence, issued by Manitoba Conservation, has been required for all tree care workers in Manitoba who work as arborists.

Workshop Demonstrates Applied Science in the Field to Students

In June of 2003, more than 40 students from Fort Richmond and St. James Collegiates enjoyed a visit to the Faculty’s Carman Research Station where they participated in a day-long workshop. Representatives from the Department of Soil Science presented “Saving Topsoil: Good for Farmers, Good for the Environment” and their colleagues from the Department of Plant Science presented “A World of Science Behind Crop Production”. The students enjoyed hands-on activities such as field scouting and soil testing, and learned about the applied science involved in agriculture.

Teachers' Learning Adventure Launched

In the summer of 2003, the Faculty was a key sponsor of Agriculture in the Classroom-Manitoba’s new program dedicated to Manitoba school teachers. The Teachers’ Learning Adventure took 20 teachers into the ‘wilds’ of rural Manitoba for an intense, week-long learning experience. With a base camp at the Riding Mountain Guest Ranch, the teachers experienced farms where producers shared their personal experiences and profound connections to agriculture. The teachers were able to use the adventure as credit toward their Post Baccalaureate degree at the University of Manitoba. Best of all, the teachers will take their experience and new knowledge back to their classrooms!

Horticultural Inquiries Website Goes Live

Designed to supplement the Hort Line telephone service operated by the Department of Plant Science in the summer months, a new Horticultural Inquiries website was launched at umanitoba.ca/afs/hort_inquiries/. The site features information about Manitoba plants, trees and vegetables, and the pest, disease and environmental challenges they face. Funding for this website was provided by Faculty of Agricultural and Food Sciences Endowment Fund and the Continuing Education Division Endowment Fund.

Research Links Column Continued

The Farmers’ Independent Weekly newspaper continues to print a weekly column highlighting Faculty research, entitled “Research Links”. Each week the column features an article written by a Faculty member or graduate student describing current research activities and projects within the Faculty. In 2003, the Faculty provided 45 columns to the newspaper. All columns (which date back to June 2002) are archived on the Faculty’s website at umanitoba.ca/afs/fiw/.

Open House Hosted at Glenlea Research Station

The Glenlea Research Station held an Open House in October 2003 for neighbours of the facility. Researchers were on hand to explain the plans and projects that will become the Centre for Agroecological Livestock Production Systems (renamed the National Centre for Livestock and the Environment). The Centre will be pursuing long-term solutions to the environmental challenges of intensive livestock production systems.

Entomology Students Share Their Knowledge with Children

Graduate students in the Department of Entomology participate in numerous public education and outreach activities each year, and particularly focus their attention on informing young people about the fascinating world of insects. The busiest activity of the year was the Amazing Insects section of the Amazing Grains event in the fall of 2003 where, in a span of three days, 1200 Winnipeg school children were treated to interactive sessions on insect diversity, grain pests, insect morphology and apiculture. In addition to drawers of pinned, spectacularly exotic insects and familiar Manitoba bugs, the students add life to their presentations with a small menagerie of ants, tarantulas, cockroaches, bugs, grasshoppers and stick insects.

Criddle/Vane Homestead Historic Site Proposal Supported

Dr. Rob Roughley, Entomology, provided input to a proposal to recognize as a site of National Historic Significance the Criddle/Vane Homestead, home of one of western Canada's first entomologists and the site of the first Dominion Entomological Laboratory in the Prairies. The site near Wawanesa, MB, is significant to the entomological research community for long-term scientific study. The late Norman Criddle collected local specimens which can now be found in many major insect collections throughout the world. In 1933, a few months before his death, the Manitoba Agricultural College conferred its highest honour on him, an honorary diploma in agriculture.

Arctic Entomology Course Offered

Dr. Rob Roughley, Entomology, along with several colleagues, taught a two-week course called "Arctic & Boreal Entomology" in August at the Churchill Northern Studies Centre in Churchill, Manitoba. Ten students from Ghana, Brazil, United States and Canada were enrolled in the course put forward by the University of the Arctic in Tromso, Norway. The course consisted of a survey of arctic habitats in the Churchill area, evening lectures and individual research projects of the students. The collecting done by the group has provided many specimens to be added to the J.B. Wallis Museum of Entomology in the Department of Entomology.

Food Science Called Upon for Dairy Expertise

Staff from the Department of Food Science offered a Thermal Processing course to industry and government representatives in Saskatoon, SK, Glenwood, AB, and here on campus in December. The University of Manitoba dairy pilot plant is one of two facilities in Canada where this training is offered and this is reflected in the growing interest and increased enrolment each year in the courses. Continued growth in enrolment is expected over the next few years. As well, the Department once again offered a short course on Dairy Technology to students from the University of Minnesota, Crookston Campus.

Agriculture Renewal Conference Takes to the Road

After hosting successful conferences in Brandon for the past three years, the Agriculture Renewal Alliance brought events this past fall to rural residents in St. Pierre, Pilot Mound, Arborg/Riverton and Dauphin areas. The Alliance hosted a series of evening dinner, speaker and discussion events with the theme "What does it mean to be successful in rural Manitoba?" Over 150 participants were able to attend this year’s events. Among the principal organizers were Dr. Rene Van Acker, Gary Martens, and Dr. Jane Froese of the Department of Plant Science.

IN MEMORIAM

It is with deep regret that we announce the passing in July 2003 of Dr. Daryl Kraft, former head of the Department of Agribusiness and Agricultural Economics, at the age of 58 after a long battle with cancer. In the area of agricultural economics over the past 25 years, both nationally and provincially, Daryl emerged as an outstanding educator and a leading figure in his field. He had a gift for clear analysis and his work encompassed a broad range of substantial studies on rural real estate markets, agricultural production, various dimensions of agricultural policy, and international trade. His knowledge, research and accessibility made him an invaluable advisor to both farmers and government and he worked closely with industry, federal and provincial governments on numerous policies and projects. An Endowment Fund has been established in Daryl's name.

THE DARYL F. KRAFT ENDOWMENT FUND

Colleagues, friends and family of Dr. Daryl F. Kraft have established an endowment/trust fund at the University of Manitoba to encourage clear and objective discussion of agricultural issues in Canada. The Fund will provide an opportunity for individuals and institutions to contribute to a program of activities in agribusiness management within the Department of Agribusiness and Agricultural Economics. The proceeds from this fund will be used to undertake two activities. First, an annual Daryl F. Kraft prize for the best undergraduate student paper in agricultural policy at the University of Manitoba; and a biennial Daryl F. Kraft lecture series on agricultural policy to be delivered by a prominent Canadian or international agricultural economist who embodies Daryl’s approach to education and communication.

If you wish to contribute to the fund, please contact Private Funding at (204) 474-9195 or 1-800-330-8066.
