The 2nd Annual PSA Summer Symposium is just around the corner, and it’s an opportunity for the potato industry to come together to focus on sustainability. The event will take place from June 20-22 at the Sysco Headquarters in Houston, TX. The Symposium will feature discussions on various topics, including the Manitoba Water Project, the rollout of the PSA Sustainability Program 2.0, and data privacy and sharing. The keynote speaker this year is Debbie Lyons-Blythe, a cattle rancher from Kansas and the Chair of the U.S. Roundtable for Sustainable Beef.
Sustainability is crucial for building a stronger production system, a stronger community, and a better environment. The PSA program is advancing, and farms will grow in productivity and profitability. The environment will be enhanced over time, and communities will prosper and grow. The Symposium is an excellent opportunity for farmers, agronomists, agricultural engineers, farm owners, and scientists who work in agriculture to come together and learn about the latest developments in potato sustainability.
The Manitoba Water Project is a project that could become a model for the kinds of projects PSA participants could get involved with in the future. The project aims to improve water quality and reduce nutrient runoff in Manitoba’s potato-growing regions. The PSA Sustainability Program 2.0 will feature the Sustainable Outcomes in Agriculture Standard and the Cropwise Sustainability App in collaboration with partners and PSA Members at Syngenta. The program will help farmers measure and improve their sustainability performance.
Data privacy and sharing are essential topics for the potato industry. The PSA Water Stewardship Program aims to help farmers manage water resources sustainably. The PSA Business Strategy Workshop, held a few weeks ago in Minneapolis, discussed the best way forward for the potato industry.
