Saskatchewan produced $16.9 billion in agricultural exports last year, a 31 per cent increase over 2019 and a new high for the province.
Canola seed, non-durum wheat, lentils, canola oil and durum wheat remain Saskatchewans leading agriculture exports with our top international markets
being the United States, China, Japan and India.
Saskatchewan agri-food export destinations in 2020 were listed as the United States, China, Japan, India and Mexico.
Agriculture Minister David Marit says Saskatchewan producers grow safe, high-quality food that the world needs and our agriculture exporters remain committed to providing the world with these products.
Increases in primary production as well as a growing value-added sector have contributed to the record agri-food export growth in Saskatchewan.
In 2020, the Province's value-added exports totalled $3.2 billion and included canola oil, canola meal and processed oats.
The Province is currently working on opening new trade offices in Singapore, Japan and India in 2021 aas a means of increasing export diversification.
