Ag Month an opportunity to celebrate an important industry

In proclaiming October Agriculture Month, the government of Saskatchewan encourages taking time to celebrate the agriculture industry.

The focus of the designation is also to encourage consumers to learn more about the world-class, environmentally sustainable products produced here. Throughout the month, the public is encouraged to share their connection to food through the theme, "#MealsFromtheFarm." 

"Saskatchewan's agriculture industry cannot thrive without the dedicated individuals that make up the value-chain," Agriculture Minister David Marit said. "They have a passion for producing the healthy, affordable food that we share with our families everyday. I encourage everyone to show support by celebrating this innovative, resilient and sustainable industry."
