Canada: Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food to meet with farmers on marketing choice for barley
Chuck Strahl, Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food and Minister for the Canadian Wheat Board, announced July 13 that he will participate in a roundtable meeting to be chaired by David L. Anderson, Parliamentary Secretary for the Canadian Wheat Board on July 27.
This Roundtable will hear ideas from a cross-section of western Canadian farmers, stakeholder organizations and others who support the advancement of marketing choice for farmers as a means for creating greater financial returns.
“Canada’s new government campaigned on the idea that western Canadian grain producers should have a choice whether to market their products through the CWB,” said Minister Strahl. “Our invited experts will help chart a path towards a successful marketing choice alternative that will also ensure a strong and profitable CWB continues to serve farmers in the future.”
The ideas presented and discussed at this meeting will contribute to delivering on the new government’s campaign promise to implement dual-marketing for western grain producers.
