By GFM Network News, Phil Franz-Warkentin May 23, 2018

CNS Canada — Farmers in the U.S. may have planted fewer pulse acres in 2018 compared to the previous year — but the reduction was likely not as large as forecast by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

By GFM Network News, Phil Franz-Warkentin May 4, 2018

Pulse weekly outlook: Prairie lentils look for spark

By Dave Sims, GFM Network News April 24, 2018
