SOUTHEAST AGRI NEWS, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 2013
Doing the right thing across the board is pretty well impossible Norm Park Opinion There was a news release issued in late 2012 stating that for the sake of security, some valuable base seeds used in the agricultural communities in the Middle East had been shipped to Norway to be included in the world’s safe and secure seed storage vaults. There are now more than 750,000 varieties of seeds representing life itself, frozen, labelled and secured. The seeds were sent there as a “just in case� backup in the event that a new scorched earth attack by some non-thinking terrorist group of the week won’t put future agricultural endeavours in that part of the world in total jeopardy. Seeds from Asia, North America, Europe, Middle East, Australia, South Pacific and the Caribbean have been tested and tucked away by a dedicated international core
of officials who understand the importance of what they are doing. They have a caretaker and a plan in the event of devastation and destruction. This news release brought about a few additional thoughts we’d like to share. The first is that while this world is riddled with millions of people who are doing their best to destroy it, there is a firm cadre of those who are equally intent on preserving it and making it even better. We can only hope the good guys are still outnumbering the bad guys, but sometimes we question the ratio. We find it interesting to note that while there are many out there who are illintentioned and lacking in basic education, there are many who are progressive and like-minded in their desire to preserve and protect what they know and see as being vital elements to life itself ,whether it be clean air,

good water or seeds to plant to grow food. These people are smart enough to ignore language barriers, tribal feuds, political differences and cultural clashes long enough to do what they know has to be done. They donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quibble over who is in charge. They just ensure that the basics are covered. In the meantime, while they are doing that job ... the current world of agriculture as we recognize it, is trying to feed over six billion people. So our second thought is one of future production. There is less land and less fresh water, but thanks to better production methods and scientific research, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been able to keep pace. Each farmer is able to feed more
and more with each harvest, thanks to advancement in those seeds, equipment, and production techniques. What holds us up and what prevents us from feeding the starving people hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t much to do with production and everything to do with politics, education and transportation. Getting our food surplus to those who desperately need it is a logistical, political and economic nightmare. Who is paying the producer for it and how can it be transported? Who is going to pay for that? Once it arrives, who can assure it gets distributed to those who most need it? Who is strong enough to remove the corrupt politicians and military from

the equations? North American producers alone could almost feed the world with what we know and what we can do in our fields. Getting the food to those who need it though, and being compensated well enough to enable the production cycle to continue is beyond us.
Like the Norwegianbased seed storage program, this other phase of agriculture should be above political, military and economic power ... but it isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t and probably never will be. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why we can only keep hoping that the good guys will continue to outnumber the bad guys. c

Huge funding increase for crop research efforts A total of 38 Saskatchewan crop-related research projects have received $6.5 million in federal and provincial funding support. The announcement was made in mid-January by federal Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz and Saskatchewanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Agriculture Minister Lyle Stewart. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Crop research being done in Saskatchewan helps keep Canadian agriculture growing and contributing to a strong economy,â&#x20AC;? Ritz said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These projects will help improve methods of crop disease control and weather tolerance that will make Saskatchewan farmers more productive and profitable.â&#x20AC;? Stewart pointed out that â&#x20AC;&#x153;Saskatchewan has a reputation as a leader in crop production and research and these new projects will help to ensure this continues to be the case. These projects will help to achieve goals set out in our growth plan and help our farmers meet the growing world demand for safe, reliable agriculture products.â&#x20AC;? Some of the croprelated projects that will receive the government funding this year include
such things as weed management, wheat yield gains, genetic mapping of blackleg disease in canola and building disease resistance in cereals and pulses. Other areas of research will include improvements in the nutritional value of oats; new technologies to assess sprout damage in wheat; herbicide tolerance in mustard varieties; addressing genetic and disease obstacles to canary seed production and methods to control and eradicate clubroot in canola. Funding for the projects will be provided from the Saskatchewan Agriculture Development
Fund (ADF) and is part of a record $20 million provincial agriculture research budget that was set for 2012-13, which is an increase of more than 50 per cent since 2007. More than $57 million in research project funding has been provided through ADF since then. The investment will assist Saskatchewan in establishing the province as an international leader in biosciences, increasing crop production by 10 million tonnes and increasing provincial agriculture exports by $5 billion by 2020, part of the government Plan for Growth mandate.

The project funding will help to leverage additional third-party funding of more than $8.4 million. It was noted that Western Grains Research Foundation, Saskatchewan Pulse Growers, Saskatchewan Canola Development Commission, Saskatchewan Oat Development Commission and the Canaryseed Development Commission of Saskatchewan are a few of the organizations that are signing on as partners on
these ADF projects. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Research has been vital to the growth of the canola industry,â&#x20AC;? said Brett Halstead, chairman of the SaskCanola Committee. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We appreciate the funding and look forward to the benefits it will create for canola producers in the future.â&#x20AC;? Similar words of encouragement were advanced by Dwayne Anderson, chairman of the Saskatchewan Oat De-
velopment Commission; Gerrid Gust, chairman of the Western Canadian Wheat Growers, and Dave Sefton, chairman of the Western Grains Research Foundation. Funding for the ADF directed projects is provided under Growing Forward, a federal-provincialterritorial initiative.

Farmer Appreciation event resets program by Norm Park for Agri-news The nominations are in and the judges are now into their contemplative mode as they work toward selecting southeast Saskatchewanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Farm Family of the Year. The award will be presented on Feb. 28 during the annual salute to agricultural
producers by the City of Estevan, the Estevan Chamber of Commerce and the Estevan Exhibition Association, all major sponsors of Farmer Appreciation Day. Alf Tide, chairman of the appreciation dinner which usually attracts over 300 people to the Days Inn Plaza every year, said a last minute change was made
to the entertainment lineup with the sudden and tragic passing of well-known Saskatchewan entertainer Les Pavelick, alias, Metro who was slated to perform for an Energy City audience that evening. Pavelick, 71, passed away at his winter base in Yuma, Arizona and Tide said it was doubly unfortunate since the local organizing

They have now booked stand-up comedian Tom Liske of Saskatoon, a veteran jokester who has performed on Just for Laughs shows and offers his audience a full slate of family friendly humorous observations on life as well as a full complement of songs and hilarious stories. Liske has performed at such well-known venues as the Calgary Comedy Festival as a headliner as well as Edmontonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Comedy Factory and has appeared alongside the Smothers Brothers and Brent Butt. It is noted that he even spent a good part of his professional career in Los Angeles, refining his â&#x20AC;&#x153;fish out of waterâ&#x20AC;? lifestyle. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had known about Pavelick for years. â&#x2021;˘Pg 6

Saddened by untimely death of scheduled entertainers, but the show will go on â&#x2021; Pg 4 He said he had spent a good deal of time in and around Estevan and was eager to get here again. It had never worked out, never been possible, until this year. We were all excited. In fact Les had offered to come to Estevan a couple of days early so he could help some local groups do some fundraising for their causes. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d been doing a lot of that lately. In fact he had just told some friends he was so proud to claim he had helped various organizations raise over $1 million. Then heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gone ...
heart attack, I believe. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so sad,â&#x20AC;? said Tide. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But on a positive note, Tom Liske comes highly recommended. Some of our committee members have seen him work and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re anxious to get him here.â&#x20AC;? Tide said the keynote speakers for the dinner will be Jim Reiter, minister of Municipal Affairs and Government Relations and former Minister of Highways and Infrastructure along with David Marit, president of the Saskatchewan Association of Rural
Municipalities for the past six years. Reiter (MLA for Rosetown-Elrose) and Marit, who hails from the RM of Willow Bunch, know each other pretty well, having worked together on rural issues for many years, so it could be an interesting evening from that side of it,â&#x20AC;? said Tide. The members of the Browning 4-H Beef Club who have won awards for public speaking will be featured during the program as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Of course one high-
light will be the naming of the Farm Family of the Year for the 48th year. I believe the committee has at least four very worthy nominees to assess. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen the names and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d hate to have
Tom Liske
to be the one to make a decision because they all have great credentials. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll just have to wait and see,â&#x20AC;? said Tide. Nominations closed on the last day of January. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had the set
David Marit
back with the loss of Pavelick and his Metro characterization, but the show must go on and the organizing committee is very excited about this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s event.
