Sask Wheat joins national grain group

The Grain Growers of Canada have welcomed the Saskatchewan Wheat Development Commission (Sask Wheat) as its newest member.

Earlier this year, GGC announced its partnership with Sask Wheat on their ‘Road to 2050’ climate solutions initiative. GGC Chair Andre Harpe said both organizations are focused on improving on-farm sustainability and the competitiveness of Canadian agriculture on both the domestic and international front.

Harpe said they are happy to add Sask Wheat’s perspective to their membership and look forward to advocating on behalf of their 24,000 farmer members.

“Sask Wheat is a provincial leader in research and market development who has strengthened their province’s competitive advantage through prioritizing their member’s interests,” Harpe said. “Adding their voice to the table means that we are an even stronger advocate for grain farmers.”
