Agriculture ministers could meet again to discuss AgriStability
MELFORT, Sask. – The federal agriculture minister is pushing Saskatchewan to support proposed enhancements to the program.
Saskatchewan Agriculture Minister David Marit said he is concerned about the cost and is asking for another meeting of federal-provincial agriculture ministers to discuss the issue.
Marie-Claude Bibeau said she is willing to hold another meeting to discuss the AgriStability farm support program.
“I’m always open and happy to have meetings with my counterparts. Actually, we met 21 times last year because of the COVID-19 context and our hope to make improvements to AgriStability,” she said.
