Sask. ag equipment continuing to see strong global demand

The province is seeing a significant jump in demand on the global market for agricultural products made in Saskatchewan.

Shipments for ag products have increased in value by around 135 per cent over the past five years, going from $359 million to $843 million.

Total agri-food exports from Saskatchewan hit $18.5 billion in 2022, accounting for around 35 per cent of the total investment made on all exports.

“Our province is known internationally as a source of safe, reliable, and sustainably produced food, but we’re also being recognized for the quality equipment we use to grow it,” said David Marit, Saskatchewan’s Agriculture Minister. “The made-in-Saskatchewan equipment our businesses design and create has a market that extends around the world, and these products are clearly in demand.”
