Its a chance for producers to learn new ways to enhance their operations while looking over things to avoid.

 

The Foraging into the Future Conference, which focuses on practical solutions for livestock producers, will be held on December 10th and 11th at the Credit Union I-plex in Swift Current.

 

Trevor Lennox, Forage Development Specialist with Saskatchewan's Ministry of Agriculture says this year has been a tougher year for producers compared to previous years. He says things are definitely tighter in the livestock and forage sector than they've been in the last 8 or 10 years. From a financial standpoint, the situation is much harder.

 

Lennox adds that the conference will give producers tools to help make changes to their operations.
