Nearly $10 million allocated to crop research

Crop research is receiving a total of $9.7 million in funding from the federal and provincial governments. Of the $9.7 million, $7.2 million is through the Agriculture Development Fund (ADF) to support 39 research projects and $2.5 million through the Strategic Research Initiative (SRI) to study the long-term management of herbicide resistant kochia and wild oats. Provincial Agriculture Minister David Marit was at the Western Development Museum, where the Sask Crops Forum is being held, to make the announcement Tuesday morning. "First and foremost, I really got to thank the ADF board, the committee. They go through a lot of projects, probably two or three hundred, and they weed it down to ones that are really important to the farmers and ranchers here in the Province of Saskatchewan," Marit told reporters.
