About 10 million tonnes are currently crushed. Once the new crushers are built, 17 million will become oil. “We can help the crushers to build additional plans around the proteins so that these products can be sold and we can increase more jobs,” said Mehmet Tulbek, the president of the Saskatchewan Food Industry and Development Centre. “If you can do it in Saskatchewan instead of shipping it out, that would be great.”With increased oil and meal production, Hallborg said Viterra may need to do more transportation. Typically, canola seed is transported by rail and shipped out at ports.
During the panel discussion, moderator Cherilyn Jolly-Nagel questioned whether Canada’s transportation system is up to the task to handle growing demand.
