Today, Agriculture Minister David Marit announced $119 million in direct support for drought-affected cattle producers under the AgriRecovery program. The program will provide a per head payment to help maintain breeding stock. This financial relief will help producers with extraordinary costs caused by drought, such as accessing feed and water.

With the 2021 spring calving season underway, the Saskatchewan Crop Insurance Corporation (SCIC) would like to remind producers they can protect their operation against market volatility and unexpected price declines with Livestock Price Insurance (LPI).

Producers will now have additional time to conduct their Livestock Price Insurance (LPI) business.
