2011 Upcoming Agriwebinars – Canadian Farm Business Management Council

28/11/2011 Traceability - What You Need to Know & What's Happening

Businesses along the entire food chain strive hard to brand themselves as providing safe, healthy food. At the same time, public health, food safety, animal welfare, and sustainability are combining to drive the demand for food traceability as a critical tool. Transparency about the origins of food and having systems that can prove a food's origins are becoming key policy imperatives and are already mandatory in many countries.
Brian Sterling Chief Executive Officer, OnTrace Agri-food Traceability

12/12/2011 Looking Forward through a Rearview Mirror: Planning for the future
It is my thesis that if we separate the “business of farming” from real-estate ownership, a logical stepping stone is created. It is interesting that as soon as a child is born the most important lesson taught is that land ownership is sacred. Then 30 years later parents are puzzled why not only the farm child but all their children want to own land...and even worse theirs!
Merle Good, Alberta Agriculture, Food and Rural Development

New Year, New Leadership and Look for SaskOilseeds

SaskOilseeds is celebrating its official amalgamation by launching a progressive new look! "Our new brand identity reflects SaskOilseeds' vision of growing producer prosperity," says Tracy Broughton, Executive Director of SaskOilseeds.

SaskOilseeds' new look includes a logo complete with symbolic icon and the Commissions' new name, accompanied by a colour palette that includes nods to research with innovation green, canola with vibrant yellow and flax with rich blue, rounded out with a punchy orange to tie in Saskatchewan sunsets.

SaskCanola and SaskFlax merge into the brand new SaskOilSeeds

Yesterday, at the Western Canadian Crop Production Show in Saskatoon, SK, a new brand was announced. SaskCanola and SaskFlax announced that they would be amalgamating under one brand called SaskOilSeeds. While this amalgamation isn’t brand new, in fact, they officially merged together on August 1st, 2024, this announcement marks a new chapter in oilseeds for producers in Saskatchewan. Tracy Broughton is the executive director of the new SaskOilSeeds brand, and she talks about why this merger was needed, and how it will help producers of Saskatchewan oilseeds in the future. “The (SaskOilSeeds) board felt that it was a good opportunity to refresh kind of our look to the farmers and make sure that we’re speaking with one voice to reach the maximum number of farmers. In Saskatoon, during Crop Production Show week, it just seemed like a really good time to be able to present the final financials of the two organizations, SaskCanola and SaskFlax and then be able to present that new logo to
