Agriculture in the Classroom has revealed its new, kid-friendly website that brings the story of agriculture in Saskatchewan to life. The site was designed for Grades 4 to 6 students and will show them the Past and Present of agriculture in the province through highly interactive bits of information.

Executive director Sara Shymko says the website is informative and engaging with its colourful illustrations and real-life photos which gives students a visual perspective on farming. Quizzes and teacher lessons are also provided. Sara will share how the website came to be and its plans for the future.

 

The most valuable resource for any business is its people.  Agriculture is no exception.

Human capital remains essential in ensuring the continued production of high-quality food, fibre and fuel. The entire food value chain relies on people to fill planting, production, quality control, processing, and distribution roles to keep the agri-food system viable. The Canadian Agricultural Human Resource Council identified the main areas of concern within the industry as part of its recent report - Understanding the Effects of COVID-19 on Canada’s Agriculture Workforce.

Council chair Cyr Couturier will share the findings from the research AND the key recommendations.
