   "This project aims to address challenges in pulse production that will lower nitrogen fertilizer consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, increase carbon sequestration, lower disease risks and increase profits for farmers.",
   "This project aims to grow Canada’s pulse sector by increasing the number of markets, countries, companies, and consumers who use Canadian pulses. It will identify and showcase the advantages of Canadian pulses across the areas of; sustainability, nutrition, functionality, and quality, while also working to resolve market access issues impacting the industry. This project is also aiming to increase the Canadian pulse industry’s economic impact while reducing agricultural carbon emissions.",
   "This project aims to strengthen Canada’s pulse sector by protecting core markets and expanding into emerging ones through targeted advocacy, promotional campaigns, and regulatory engagement. In various markets it will address trade risks, leverage sustainability trends, open new channels, boost domestic use and innovation, and reinforce Canada’s reputation for premium ingredients.",
   "The objective of this project is to focus on marketing pulses to the food manufacturing and foodservice sector in regions where volume use potential is greatest and where they will have a unique advantage for their cost/functionality attributes, nutritional content, health and sustainability benefits.",
   "This project aims to generate data that provides assurances on the quality and safety of pulse products to facilitate sustained and diversified demand and position Canada as a trusted and preferred supplier.",
   "This project aims to strengthen and enhance the Ag Transport Coalition. The digital system will track rail performance in the export trade corridors that are utilized by exporters.",
   "The objective of this project is to continue our efforts to grow the demand for Canadian pulses and their ingredient derivatives in new and emerging markets.",
   "This project aims to develop a new system to evaluate the environmental and economic benefits of Canadian pulse production and use as a food ingredient. The work follows a very thorough sustainability strategy development process and is addressing several key pillars from within the strategy.",
   "The objective of this project is to generate tools and data that highlight the consistent quality, nutritional density, health and environmental benefits of Canada’s pulse industry in order to facilitate sustained demand for Canadian pulses in high-value markets and position Canada as a preferred supplier.",
   "This project aims to support the Ag Transport Coalition (ATC) to enhance the competitiveness of the Canadian grain sector by improving the predictability, resilience, and efficiency of supply chains through performance management, real-time visibility, and predictive analytics.",
   "The objective of this project is to maintain, strengthen and enhance the Ag Transport Coalition (ATC) Railway Performance Measurement Program (RPM) and transition its core elements - supply chain visibility through quantitative detail on shipper railcar demand and the variability in railway order fulfillment and transit times for hopper cars - to a new data-driven supply chain monitoring platform for the grain sector.",
   "The objective of this project is to address ongoing market access risk and new issues emerging due to Covid-19, by (a) developing technical analyses and data to identify the Canadian pulse industry's vulnerabilities to specific non-tariff barriers to trade, (b) identifying and executing short, medium, and long-term corrective actions against those vulnerabilities, and (c) addressing market disruptions that arise by developing market-specific access plans for priority countries.",
   "The objective of this project is to enhance quality assurance systems across all modes of shipment with additional glyphosate residue testing in advance of pulses entering export positions thereby ensuring that all export shipments of Canadian pulses meet the regulatory and contractual requirements of the end user.",
   "This project aims to identify industry-prioritized, pre-competitive research needs that address the technical and commercial barriers limiting the adoption of pulse ingredients in food manufacturing. This project will generate targeted insights from food and beverage companies to guide a national R&D strategy, supporting market diversification, sustainable growth, and innovation in the Canadian pulse sector.",
   "The objective of this project is to enhance quality assurance systems across all modes of shipment with additional glyphosate residue testing in advance of pulses being readied for export thereby ensuring that all export shipments of Canadian pulses meet the regulatory and contractual requirements of the end user."
