Good Future For Canadian Pulses

VANCOUVER - Jan 6/10 - SNS -- The future for Canada's pea and lentil industry is good and the opportunities to expand exist, STAT Publishing said in a special report prepared for the Saskatchewan Pulse Growers Association last September.

The report notes that, "Even without an overall increase in per capita pulse consumption around the world, import needs will grow. Overall pulse consumption is expected to grow 10% in the coming decade and 23% from current levels by the year 2030. Consumption is expected to grow most rapidly in Asia and Africa."
