Saskatchewan's Agriculture Minister Is Returned To The Post

Premier Scott Moe officially naming his new cabinet yesterday reappointing Wood River MLA David Marit as Agriculture Minister.

 

Marit says he's honored to work with farmers and ranchers in helping to grow the ag sector as part of the province's 30-year growth strategy.

 

"When you look at where we want to go with value-added processing. You look at opportunities around irrigation, you look at opportunities around research, federally on grains and oilseeds but also on the livestock side and our commitment to investment on research as well. To see all those sectors grow I think is important for us if we want to see the ag sector grow, and we are seeing it grow, and we want to continue to do that."

 

Marit says he'll be reaching out to farm groups to get their input on the Business Risk Management Programs as he prepares for the next Federal, Provincial and Territorial Ag Ministers Meeting later this month.
