 Area Farmers Haul In Durum To Help Third-World Countries
 
Swift Current and area farmers came together yesterday to help harvest one of the Canadian Foodgrains Bank Growing Projects.
 
The Canadian Foodgrains Bank is a Christian response to hunger, helping to provide food and knowledge to individuals in third-world countries.
 
Troy LaForge with the Grasslands Growing Project says the generosity of area producers means a lot.
 
He notes the group also receives support from seed, fertilizer, fuel, and chemical companies, as well as grain terminals and area agronomists.
 
LaForge said he's pleased with how everything turned out despite the dry conditions.
