Did you know the wheat Manitoba farmers grow is internationally recognized for its quality and is exported worldwide?
Wheat grown in Canada is mostly bread wheat, which is classified as either hard or soft. Hard wheat is used for making bakery flours, bread flours and all-purpose flours. In comparison, soft wheat is milled into cake and pastry flours.
The Foundations of Manitoba Agriculture is a series of interactive courses and information sheets that invite you and your students to explore the different crops grown and animals raised in Manitoba.
Making the connection between food and where it comes from can lead to healthier eating choices and a better appreciation for agriculture and it's role in feeding the world.
