Agri-value

If you want to be a leader in agriculture, you need to be here. You have direct access to producers and markets. And if they aren’t already here, they come here for one of the two biggest agriculture shows in the world — Canadian Western Agribition, and Canada's Farm Progress Show. 

This means that in Regina you have local access to expertise that is unmatched in Western Canada.
