MODERN MEAT REPORTS PROGRESS ON PRODUCTION IN EXPECTATION OF NEW ORDERS

Modern Plant Based Foods Inc., (CSE: MEAT) ("Modern Foods") or (the "Company"), an award-winning plant-based food company is pleased to report that Modern Meat Inc., ("Modern Meat"), a portfolio company of Modern Plant-Based Foods, has made significant positive progress on expanding production capabilities with a copacker in Saskatchewan. The management team has completed initial testing on prototypes and aims to move forward with initial production runs in the next few months. This improvement to production capacities will allow Modern Meat to sufficiently supply its Modern Seafood products to larger-scale restaurants and retailers. The Company expects to see increased demand due to the competition in the plant-based industry beginning to shrink.  

The Company has been in the research and development phase with the co-packer for several months to ensure the facility is able to produce the quality and requirements for the Modern products, specifically for innovative items in the portfolio such as its Modern Crab Cake. "We have arguably some of the best quality/complex plant-based meat analogues on the market and remain steadfast to our commitment on quality standards." states Avtar Dhaliwal, CEO of Modern Plant-based Foods. The Modern Meat portfolio consists of high-quality artisanal plant-based protein based "meat" products. The production process is integral to developing the Company's recipes to a sufficient standard. Mr. Dhaliwal continues: "We are now seeing a major shift as many plant-based companies begin to deviate from their initial trajectory. We are here to stay. I am pleased to report the progress we have made with this new copacker as completion of the project will allow us to expand further into the global plant-based fish market and supply high quality products to large scale outlets."

Video: How women saved agricultural economics and other ideas for why diversity matters | Jill J. McCluskey

Dr. Jill J. McCluskey, Regents Professor at Washington State University and Director of the School of Economic Science

Dr. McCluskey documents that women entered agricultural economics in significant numbers starting in the 1980s, and their ranks have increased over time. She argues that women have increased the relevance in the field of agricultural economics through their diverse interests, perspectives, and experiences. In their research, women have expanded the field's treatment of non-traditional topics such as food safety and nutrition and environmental and natural resource economics. In this sense, women saved the Agricultural Economics profession from a future as a specialty narrowly focused on agricultural production and markets. McCluskey will go on to discuss some of her own story and how it has shaped some of her thinking and research. She will present her research on dual-career couples in academia, promotional achievement of women in both Economics and Agricultural Economics, and work-life support programs.

The Daryl F. Kraft Lecture is arranged by the Department of Agribusiness and Agricultural Economics, with the support of the Solomon Sinclair Farm Management Institute, and in cooperation with the Faculty of Agricultural and Food Sciences.
