Helping Feed the World 2009

We make your concerns our business

Will there be enough food to feed the global population in the years to come? Are our crops resilient enough to face ever-changing weather patterns? Are producers doing enough to address and prevent world hunger?

Yes. We are. Every day we work hard to maximize yields and productivity to help ensure future generations all over the world will have enough to eat. Producers like our customers and ourselves are eager to rise to the challenge and incorporate all available technology in order to grow more abundant and viable crops.

Here’s how we and producers like us are Helping to Feed the World:

Over $ 116,000.00 donation by five Norquay, Saskatchewan Area Producers to “Helping Feed the World”!

On Wednesday December 23, 2009, five local producers presented a cheque to the Kernels of Hope Program in the amount of $23,205.75. Kernels of Hope is affiliated with Canadian Food Grains Bank and donations to it result in a matching donation of four dollars to every one dollar by the Canadian International Development Agency. “This resulted in a total donation of $ 116,028.75,” reported Fallon Hudye of Hudye Soil Services of Norquay, Saskatchewan.

The amount generated is to be directed into programs that provide food for those in dire need and for the purchase of seed and tools to help farms in Southern Sudan, Africa, said Ray Baloun of Minnedosa, Manitoba who began the Kernels of Hope Program in Norquay, Saskatchewan five years ago.
Krywy Farms, Leis Farms, LTS Grain Farms, Steven Nahachewsky, and Hudye Farms stepped up to the plate and participated in the initiative organized by Hudye Soil Services Inc. to have each producer donate 10 acres of a crop of their choice to the project. The hope of the initiative is to potentially “snow ball” into many more acres in the future in recognition of the efforts put forth by the farming community to Helping Feed the World.

“The donation to Sudan provides hope to those who often have none”, Baloun said. “A difference is being made around the world from right here in Norquay, Saskatchewan, Canada.”
