The Saskatchewan Oat Development Commission represents oat producers across the province.
In 2006 1.58 million acres of oats were harvested in Saskatchewan. Oats grow best in fields with good drainage and sandy loam to heavy clay soil textures.
Oats are mainly used for livestock feed or breakfast foods.
Rolled oats are an excellent source of thiamine, iron, and dietary fibre.
In 2005 two million acres of oats were seeded in Saskatchewan.
