Getting it Right

Attention Pulse and Soybean Farmers! MPSG presents its annual, farmer-exclusive, Getting it Right Production Meeting.

Getting it Right is a full-day, farmer-focused event, equipping Manitoba’s soybean and pulse growers with the tools required to face production challenges and market access issues. This event offers an opportunity for farmers to see where their MPSG research investments are going, while networking and receiving production support.

Getting it Right was at the Canad Inns, Portage la Prairie, MB on January 29, 2020. View the full 2020 Agenda here.
