A Saskatchewan farm leader has been selected as the new general manager of the Canadian Cattle Association.

He says issues facing producers include a serious beef price disparity between farmgate and store shelf.

As well, he wants to see improvements to federal-provincial farm business risk programs.

Lee wants to see livestock price insurance as a permanent program and cost-shared like crop insurance.

Lee has been with the Saskatchewan Cattlemen’s Association for 7 years.

Previously, he was a policy analyst for the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association in Ottawa.
