Were you impacted by the drought last year?
As the winter comes to an end, farmers have been able to better assess the implications that last year’s drought had on their farm. A few reports have come forward regarding hay shortages. Nova Scotia Cattle Producers and Nova Scotia Federation of Agriculture will be co-leading two sessions for farmers of any commodity to attend so we have a better idea of the scope of the issue.
To ensure that the file can be moved on as quickly as possible if necessary, two sessions will take place starting at 7p.m.:
- Tuesday May 16 – Paddy’s Pub, Kentville
- Wednesday May 17 – NSFA Boardroom, Bible Hill
If you are unable to attend either of these sessions but would like to provide input, please fill out the form linked here.
