Register Early For Pulse Days 2010 - Tools For Success
SASKATOON,
"The conference is about recognizing the growth and success of the Saskatchewan pulse industry, while preparing producers for the future," says Amanda Olekson, Communications Manager for the Saskatchewan Pulse Growers (SPG).
Conference topics include Management Practices to Maximize Returns, Competitiveness in the Global Food Market, The Nutrient Contribution of Pulse Crops to Next Year's Crops and SPG funded research projects. The afternoon will end off with market outlook panels.
"We have devoted our entire afternoon to market outlooks, recognizing the importance of this information to farmers," explains Olekson. "We will have three moderated market outlook question and answer panels on chickpeas, peas and lentils."
The conference will run on
"Traditionally more than 1,000 producers attend," Olekson says, "and people have already begun securing their spots. The best way to guarantee your first choice of location is to register early. To accommodate the large numbers, we will continue to offer the option of attending at either Prairieland Park (in conjunction with the Western Canadian Crop Production Show) or the Saskatoon Inn (where the speakers will present live)."
