WINNIPEG – Canadian farmers have been projected to plant fewer acres of pulses, according to Statistics Canada.
“Keeping in mind this is the seeding intentions report based on a survey of growers from the beginning of March. It’s as current as the day it was collected,” commented Carl Potts, executive director of Saskatchewan Pulse Growers.
In the agency’s Principal Field Crop Acreage report, released April 24, estimated acres for dry white beans, dry coloured beans, chickpeas and lentils were down.
