The Canadian Crops Convention is an annual, three day event hosted each March by the Canola Council of Canada and the Canada Grains Council. This event attracts people from across the grain, oilseed, pulse and special crop value chains to:

network, coordinate and improve dialogue;
discuss and gain insight into advancements and trends in agriculture; and
be inspired to continue a collaborative approach to advance the growth and profitability of Canadian crops.
During these three informative, in-person days, you’ll have opportunities to make connections with colleagues and customers from around the world in a business-focused environment.
