Cattle producers in Saskatchewan are applauding the federal livestock tax deferral for sales due to drought this year.
The livestock tax deferral map covers the southern two-thirds of the Saskatchewan grain belt.
The manager of the Saskatchewan Stock Growers, Chad MacPherson, welcomes the early announcement for the tax deferral:
The federal criteria for regions for livestock tax deferral are forage shortfalls of 50 percent or more caused by drought or excess moisture.
