Future of research, regulations among topics discussed during Federal Ag Minister's visit to Saskatchewan

Federal Agriculture Minister Heath McDonald kicked off a two-day visit to Saskatchewan Tuesday with a stop at the University of Saskatchewan. McDonald toured the Western College of Veterinary Medicine and afterward met with industry stakeholders. The discussions were focused on research with 16 representatives participating in the discussions, both in-person and virtually. The federal government received heavy criticism for plans to close seven Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada research facilities across the country.

"They don't necessarily farm exactly the sam
