Sweet wants to see water management strategy for northwest

April 15, 2021 Agriculture, Local News
heather-sweet

On our Ag Show today, we caught up with Agriculture and Forestry Opposition Critic, Heather Sweet.

Among the topics we covered with the Edmonton-Manning MLA include:

  • her questioning Minister Devin Dreeshen about the need for more veterinarians for rural areas
  • her thoughts that it is Dreeshen, not the federal government, leaving money on the table in Agri-Stability
  • the need for a water and moisture management strategy for the northwest, were farmers have seen crop yields around 20 percent below the average over the last five years; and,
  • we get an update on her lovely huskies, as well as her potato farming activities.

The full conversation is below.
