Canada’s Ag Potential Not Reached
Canada has not hit its potential in agricultural trade with the United States, delegates to the Canadian agricultural outlook conference were told. Assistant deputy trade minister A. G. Kniewasser said Canada now supplies six per cent of U.S. imports and could grow by improving direct shipping to American producers, packers, wholesalers, and retailers. He urged better quality control, continuity of supply, and a more orderly inflow of Canadian exports to ease marketing and boost profitability.
