Chickpea growers encouraged to participate in grower survey

Pulse Canada says Canadian pulses are some of the most sustainable crops in the world, and they're looking to back that up with even more data.

Chickpea growers are being asked to participate in a survey looking at the environmental impact of Canadian chickpea production.

Pulse Canada will use the survey results to create a 'Life Cycle Assessment for Canadian chickpeas'.

The goal is to use the data to position Canadian chickpeas as foods with a low environmental footprint.
 
Producers can find a link to the survey here.

The deadline to complete the Chickpea Grower Survey is March 31st.

We cover: today I am so excited to share this conversation with my buddy Eric Nordell of Beech Grove Farm in Pennsylvania to chat about, well, a lot of things. Eric and his wife Anne have run beech grove farm since 1983 and they do things a little differently (like farming with horses) but they dry farm which we discuss, they use some cover crops in the paths in interesting ways (also discussed) and in fact, we get into a whole digression about their deer fencing that you’re gonna wanna hear.
