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.

Alberta Beef Producers hosts Producer Town Hall on Traceability

Alberta Beef Producers (ABP) hosted a Producer Town Hall on Traceability on March 2, ahead of its Annual General Meeting, bringing together industry representatives and cattle producers to share perspectives on one of the most pressing issues currently facing the beef sector.  “Traceability has become one of the most talked-about issues in the Canadian beef industry in recent weeks,” says Doug Roxburgh, Chair of ABP.  “ABP is in a listening phase and is committed to hearing directly from Alberta cattle producers and representing their best interests as discussions move forward. The purpose of this Town Hall was to provide additional time and space for producers to share their perspectives, which will help inform ABP’s approach on this issue.”  Alberta cattle producers were invited to attend in person or virtually. The event took place at the Sheraton Cavalier Calgary and was broadcast live to online registrants via Direct Livestock Marketing Systems (DLMS).  The event began with op

Alberta Beef Producers objects to proposed traceability changes; announces intent to form traceability working group 

Following extensive producer engagement, including 15 Producer Meetings and a dedicated Town Hall, ABP delegates passed a resolution at the 2026 Annual General Meeting directing the creation of a traceability working group. ABP, alongside governments and other cattle organizations, will work to address deficiencies and producer confidence in the current model before further changes can be considered. Effective disease readiness and trade access require a traceability system that works in practice, not just in policy. It must be supported by proven technology, reflect the realities of cattle production, and limit undue costs or administrative burden. Without that foundation, the system will not achieve full producer participation and will?not work as intended.??? The?proposed amendments to Part XV of the?Health of Animals Regulations?(Identification and Traceability), as advanced by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA), create significant challenges for beef producers and ABP

Farmer Funding to Drive Innovation and Strengthen Canola Production under Canola Agronomic Research Program in 2026

The three Prairie provincial canola grower associations have evaluated and selected 11 canola research projects to receive funding under the Canola Agronomic Research Program (CARP) in 2026. This investment includes over $2.4 million from Alberta Canola, SaskOilseeds and Manitoba Canola Growers, as well as over $495,000 from the Western Grains Research Foundation (WGRF) and over $1 million from Results Driven Agriculture Research (RDAR), bringing the total investment to $4 million. Driven by grower associations and supported by a robust, collaborative research priority development and proposal review system, CARP enables the funding of projects that are key to advancing canola productivity and mitigating production threats. The funded projects regularly provide new strategies for managing pests and diseases, addressing emerging threats such as weeds and viral infections, and supporting a more resilient canola crop. Grower associations are pleased to collaborate with the RDAR and WGRF,
