Did you know that the AB and BC Peace Region is one of the main forage and turf seed producing areas in the world? If you are growing forages or are admiring your lush lawn, chances are good that a Peace region grower was the source of that seed. Here to talk to us today is Talon Gauthier, general manager of the Peace Region Forage Seed Association. The forage seed association is unique in that it spans both the AB and BC Peace region, allowing it to represent producer interests across the region regardless of that pesky little line on the map.
Talon will share a bit more about her background and how she got started with the association as part of our chat. Talon and her husband also farm in the area, so she literally has boots on the ground when it comes to knowing the industry. If you missed previous episodes, you might also enjoy Episode 4 and 9, which Talon will refer to in our discussion . In episode 4, Keith Uloth was sharing details about the Pest monitoring program for forage and grain producers in the BC Peace region, while in episode 9 I talked to Calvin Yoder, who is filling the role of forage seed agronomist in the Peace region.
