April 7: COVID-related labour costs, ag’s super power, Sask’s budget, and trade with China (Real Ag Radio – Sirius) 

April 08, 2021


Real Ag Radio Sirius XM (Canada & US Rural Radio) interviewed senior research fellow Joseph Glauber. Glauber discussed (beg. At 27:40) climate issues in the “trade” file and how the ag community is more open to how agriculture can do things to mitigate greenhouse emissions.
