Sask. Water Security Agency providing $700K for water management projects

Saskatchewan’s Water Security Agency (WSA) is providing $700,000 to help agricultural producers and local governments complete water management projects.

This funding is part of a $1.5 million two-year commitment to support the continued growth of the agricultural sector in the province.

“This Agricultural Water Management Fund addresses the cost burden and other barriers producers, and local governments might experience when planning water management projects in Saskatchewan,” said Jeremy Cockrill, the Minister responsible for the WSA. “This will provide landowners with the financial support and access to necessary advice, information, and tools they need.”

This funding can be used for technical and engineering costs, and mitigation and rehabilitation work.

In this conversation with Amanda Patin, North America Business Development Director for US Crop Science at SGS, we dig into what seed testing really reveals, far beyond germination and a lab report. From seed vigor and mechanical damage to stress performance and pathogen pressure, Patin explains how deeper testing can help companies differentiate their seed, protect value, and drive real return on investment.

If seed testing is something you only think about when you have to, this discussion might change how you see and use it.
