Protein Industries Canada Continues Its Focus On Manitoba

Feb 01, 2021

Protein Industries Canada announced 13 technology projects last year.

"We've had great support from our members in Manitoba," said CEO Bill Greuel. "A significant amount of the investments we've made have been in that province. We've got four projects, total investment of $116 million and it really spans the value chain. We've got work going on in processing and a lot of work going on in the digital ag space too."

The Manitoba-based projects are expected to create 570 new jobs, 18 new products and 10 new patents, while 75 per cent of them will reduce environmental impact.

Greuel says 2021 will see major projects advance including as Merit and Roquette. He says on the digital side they continue to work with Farmers Edge.

Video: Case IH Grain Drill Assembly: Extra Hands Required

its time to put things back together on the International 5100 grain drill. I reassemble all the row units back together and then try to install it back on the drill by myself. But that proved to be more challenging than I figured. So I enlist some help from Logans. It was so much fun having my son's help with farm projects. Its truly takes family to help make farming successful.

I am the 2nd generation to live on this property after my parents purchased it in 1978. As a child my father hobby farmed pigs for a couple years and ran a vegetable garden. But we were not a farm by any stretch of the imagination. There were however many family dairy farms surrounding us. So naturally I was hooked with farming since I saw my first tractor. As time went on, I worked for a couple of these farms and that only fueled my love of agriculture. In 2019 I was able to move back home as my parents were ready to downsize and I was ready to try my hand at farming. Stacy and logan share the same love of farming as I do. Stacy growing up on her family's dairy farm and logans exposure of farming/tractors at a very young age. We all share this same passion to grow a quality/healthy product to share with our community. Join us on this journey and see where the farm life takes us.
