A new director will take a seat at the SaskCanola board of directors table.

Katelyn Duncan from Regina received the most votes in the recent election.

Duncan operates a grain farm in the Regina area with her family. She currently serves as the Saskatchewan/Manitoba representative on the Canadian Young Farmer Forum and is a director for her local Conservation and Development Area Authority.

Returning to serve a second term are Lane Stockbrugger from Engelfeld, Bernie McClean of Glaslyn and Charlene Bradley of Stranraer.

There was a good deal of interest in this election. SaskCanola reports there was a 35 per cent increase in voter participation compared to the 2016 director election.
