Two producers will join the Saskatchewan Cattlemen’s Association board for the first time after the January annual general meeting.
Elections were scheduled this fall in five districts. Incumbents will represent three of the districts: Paula Larson in District 7 after an election and Ryan Sommerfeld in District 9A and Larry Grant in District 3B by acclamation
In District 2, Ken Demyen of Qu’Appelle will replace Bill Jameson, who did not run again. Demyen defeated Joe Jackson of Moose Jaw.
In District 5, Levi Hull from Willowbrook defeated the incumbent, Fred Lansdall of Leross.
The AGM will be held during the Saskatchewan Beef Industry Conference Jan. 23-25 in Saskatoon.
Producers attending the SCA fall district meetings passed several resolutions that will go forward to the AGM. Topics included cattle price insurance, vaccination for E. coli and the future of federal pastures as they transition to the province and then producers.
