Ground beef labelling and beef processing top agenda item at stock growers meeting
MELFORT, Sask. — Saskatchewan Stock Growers Association (SSGA) discussed the opportunities of growing the livestock processing sector at its annual meeting.
A report co-funded with Saskatchewan Ministry of Agriculture was released to the gathering.
SSGA general manager Chad MacPherson said while the research consultants were still working on the final report, they wanted to share the project’s finding to the membership and industry stakeholders.
“Saskatchewan is a vital beginning point of a competitive, well-established supply chain. We know Saskatchewan has the supply of cattle to meet the market needs of a new plant and look forward to sharing the details in the final report,” MacPherson said.
