Seeding is weeks behind schedule in Manitoba and eastern Saskatchewan and we can now expect a good chunk of that area's soaked cropland to go unplanted this spring. Bruce Burnett of Glacier MarketsFarm takes a closer look at the chances for abandoned acres in the eastern Prairies. Also: consumer demand for plant-based meats has declined. Sean Pratt of the Western Producer reviews recent studies of the market growth, or relative lack thereof, in a previously red-hot protein segment. Hosted by Robert Arnason.
