Saskatchewan farmer, ကမ္ဘာလုံးဆá€á€¯á€„်ရာလယ်သမားကွန်ယက်အဖွဲ့á€á€„်á€á€…်ဦး, and blogger Jake Leguee delivered the keynote “The environmentally friendly farmer and the attack on modern agriculture” at Ag-West Bio, Saskatchewan’s bioscience industry association annual meeting held June 23, 2022.
In his blog, A Year in the Life of a Farmer, Leguee shares his views on “the challenges we face as a society, with the perspective of someone who makes his living from Mother Nature, and world markets dominated by economics, politics, and human emotion.†He also writes about the frustration of hearing non-farmers discussing topics like regenerative agriculture, မြေဆီလွှာကျန်းမာရေး, and farming practices to reduce carbon emissions, and trying to impose their views on how to ‘switch’ to better practices, ပá€á€¯á€¸á€žá€á€ºá€†á€±á€¸á€¡á€žá€¯á€¶á€¸á€•á€¼á€¯á€™á€¾á€¯á€€á€á€¯á€œá€»á€¾á€±á€¬á€·á€á€», and grow more ‘sustainable’ crops.
Following his keynote, Leguee was part of a panel discussion. On the panel, Leguee was joined by Alanna Koch, who is also a Global Farmer Network member from Saskatchewan.
