Manitoba Pulse And Soybean Growers Conducting Membership Survey

Apr 19, 2017

Manitoba Pulse and Soybean Growers (MPSG) wants to hear from its members.

The organization is conducting a survey to help shape its operations, from research and production to communications and management.

“The pulse and soybean industry has seen a lot of change since MPSG conducted its last survey,” says MPSG Executive Director Francois Labelle. “As an association, we want to make sure our priorities are meeting the needs of our growers, helping them make their farms and the industry they operate in as profitable and sustainable as possible. We are very much looking forward to the results of this survey and we urge all MPSG members to take the time to fill it out.”

The last membership survey was conducted in 2013 and since that time, soybean acres have increased exponentially. Pulse acres have also seen a noticeable spike in interest due to strong prices.

MPSG members will receive a copy of the survey in their mailboxes, or it can also be filled out online at www.manitobapulse.ca.

Video: Why Port Infrastructure is Key to Growing Canada's Farms and Economy

Grain Farmers of Ontario (GFO) knows that strong, modern port infrastructure is vital to the success of Canada’s agriculture. When our ports grow, Ontario grain farmers and Canadian farms grow too—and when we grow, Canada grows.

In this video, we highlight the importance of investing in port infrastructure and how these investments are key to growing Ontario agriculture and supporting global trade. The footage showcases the strength of both Ontario’s farming landscapes and vital port operations, including some key visuals from HOPA Ports, which we are grateful to use in this project.

Ontario’s grain farmers rely on efficient, sustainable ports and seaway systems to move grain to markets around the world. Port investments are crucial to increasing market access, driving economic growth, and ensuring food security for all Canadians.

Why Port Infrastructure Matters:

Investing in Ports = Investing in Farms: Modernized ports support the export of Canadian grain, driving growth in agriculture.

Sustainable Growth: Learn how stronger ports reduce environmental impact while boosting economic stability.

Global Trade Opportunities: Improved port and seaway systems help farmers access new global markets for their grain.

Stronger Communities: Investment in ports means more stable jobs and economic growth for rural communities across Ontario and Canada.

We are proud to support the ongoing investment in port infrastructure and to shine a light on its vital role in feeding the world and securing a prosperous future for Canadian agriculture.

Special thanks to HOPA Ports for providing some of the stunning port footage featured in this video.
