With the latest Provincial Budget published, CKDM was joined by Dauphin's MLA and Agriculture Minister Ron Kostyshyn to elaborate on some details.

For agricultural insurance, Kostyshyn highlights some notable changes.

"We've reduced the premium by roughly $2.35 per acre on crop insurance. given the trying times, it feels appropriate."

There will also be more physical locations reopening for MASC.

"We've decided to relocate an office back in virden, Manitoba, and the other will be in shoal lake."

On top of the regularly scheduled budget items, $100 million was earmarked as a contingency fund to assist producers in dealing with Tariff effects.
