South East Research Farm




This research farm is close to our retail, just across the Sask border and south a bit,

I'm going to look at there work and WADO's (Westman Agricultural Diversification Organization) in Melita this year. What I've seen this winter on the net looks interesting.
Farmer driven research is really important and it is great to see local organizations taking leading roles. Support from the Feds and the province is evident, both money and extension dept. time/focus





There mission statement

Our Mission
"To provide quality applied research and demonstrations that are producer-driven with results extending to and beyond the farm gate to improve agricultural sustainability and encourage environmental stewardship."
