The new plan highlights an elevated focus on advocacy on behalf of producers, and the importance of partnering with other provincial and national organizations in areas like market access, trade policy, market diversification, and public trust.
The plan also features specific strategies to address some of the most critical issues facing pulse growers today, including a multi-disciplinary approach to finding solutions to root rot, continuing to expand partnerships in pulse breeding and variety development creating a competitive breeding environment, and expanding research capacity through both infrastructure and people development.
“As we look forward to 2030, SPG is focused on work that will provide sustainable growth and profitability for growers and we believe this strategic plan sets a clear path towards a more resilient and thriving pulse sector in Saskatchewan,” says Carl Potts, Executive Director with SPG.
