Event Description

London Poultry Show has changed it’s name to the National Poultry Show

Same show, same location, a new name to reflect the show’s national growth.

Following the success of the 60th edition of the London Poultry Show it has been branded for 2018 as the National Poultry Show. The show, in partnership with Western Fair District and Poultry Industry Council, has been growing steadily with the past few years showing tremendous success becoming the largest show in Canada for the poultry industry.

The show has gained international recognition and support with exhibitors and industry attendees coming from across North America and from overseas. “We are proud of the success and the size of this show which just keeps getting bigger each year. The location is perfectly situated to draw attendees from Northeastern United States and from all across Canada. You owe it to yourself to make it to the April show if you want to evaluate new technology, attend the education sessions, or network with others in the poultry sector,” remarked Keith Robbins, Executive Director, Poultry Industry Council.

As the show enters its 61st year as the National Poultry Show will continue to lead the industry and bring together the latest in poultry technology, equipment and feed on April 4-5th, 2018.

Exhibitor information is now available.

Is This the Most Underrated Feed Crop in the West?

Low maintenance, high yield, cow-approved — triticale is quickly moving from niche to must-have on cattle operations. Triticale may once have been considered a niche crop, but its value in cattle production is becoming harder to ignore. “The cattle industry has really benefited from this type of crop,” says Len Solick of Solick Seeds. “It’s produced really well, and in drier conditions it’s been a huge bonus.” Part of triticale’s appeal is its versatility. Producers can swath graze it in winter, bale it for feed, or blend it with barley for silage. “We’ve got customers who will put in about two bushels an acre of triticale to one bushel of barley,” Solick says. “That mix goes into a silage pit, and it gives them the right moisture balance because triticale matures later than barley.” Among the varieties Solick Seeds offers, AB Stampeder is his newest. Developed at Western Crop Innovations’ research facility, Solick says the variety has a number of pros. “Palatability for the cow is

CBRC signs agreement with AAFC on barley breeding

The Canadian Barley Research Coalition (CBRC) has announced an investment of $1,148,900 over three years in a Core Barley Breeding Agreement with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC).  The producer-funded investment is expected to support the development of new barley varieties with higher yields, stronger disease resistance, and improved agronomics to ensure the long-term competitiveness and sustainability of Canadian barley. A news release says the Core Barley Breeding Agreement ensures that farmers remain at the forefront of driving research priorities. It adds that by working with AAFC’s world-class researchers, CBRC is helping deliver practical solutions and improved genetics that respond to evolving market and environmental demands. The efforts are expected to support Canada’s position as a global leader in crop development where barley is a vital crop for Canada, supporting the malting, brewing, feed, and food sectors.
