Collaboration

One of the outcomes of the conference was that forage seed organizations in the three provinces are committed to collaboration and “moving forage seed-forward.” Why? Well, to start with, we heard at the Conference, concerns from producers - the forage seed industry is ‘holding its own but not growing,’ and as a rough estimate, the market is proportionately 80% exports 20% domestic. In times of grain sitting in bins waiting for calls to ship to export markets, growing the domestic market is one area of going beyond ‘holding our own’.
