Commodity market churn, boosting berry capacity

| 1 min read

With significant amounts of grain now unavailable to other countries’ importers, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has set markets swinging wildly. Bruce Burnett of MarketsFarm considers the impacts of the ongoing conflict on Canadian farmers going forward into spring. Also: the Weston family’s research foundation will put up eight figures of funding over the next six years toward a prize challenge seeking new ways to boost Canada’s capacity for growing berries out of season. Yes, berries. Evan Fraser of the Arrell Food Institute explains the greater goals in mind. Hosted by Dave Bedard.
