Provincial Agriculture Minister David Marit is heading south of the border to take in the National Association of Sate Departments of Agriculture (NASDA) 2026 Winter Policy Conference.
It's in Washington D.C. Monday through Wednesday.
Marit will emphasize the "essential role strong Canada-U.S. agricultural trade plays in supporting jobs, international competitiveness and food affordability on both sides of the border", states a news release from the province.
"Canada-U.S. agricultural trade is important to economic stability and food security," Marit said. "Saskatchewan is committed to ensuring this partnership remains strong, predictable and mutually beneficial."
Provincial exports to the U.S. include canola, pulses, livestock, and potash.
Marit will also highlight the importance of the Canada-U.S.-Mexico agreement "in facilitating stable and rules-based trade in advance of the agreement's upcoming review" this summer.
