Event Description

With the first ever virtual 2021 Ontario Ag Conference (OAgC21) just around the corner, don’t miss the chance to share this valuable learning opportunity with your customers. The teams from Ontario’s premier crops conferences have “Come Together” to develop a virtual conference platform and program that offers tremendous benefits to anyone involved in crop agriculture across the province. With the inability to meet together face to face this winter, the OAgC21 team has left no stone unturned to bring great speakers, sponsors, content and opportunities to Ontario’s crop farmers and all who support them.

Easy to use platform will make “on-line learning” effortless for registrants as they navigate from session to session, visit tradeshow sponsors or join the newly added 7 “TEC Talk Tuesdays” starting January 12th. Help us to ensure that people take the opportunity to participate in this event and encourage them to join us starting January 6 & 7th for 3 months of great learning, all from the comfort of their own home.

The Ontario Agricultural Conference is a combined effort of The Southwest Agricultural Conference, Golden Horseshoe and Heartland SCIAs and Eastern Ontario Crop Conferences. AS COVID-19 continues to create many unique challenges including our ability to meet in person we are committed to keeping our agricultural community updated with current and timely information. The combined team is very excited to bring you an incredible line up of speakers, presenting 40 sessions, providing attendees with interactive sessions full of the tremendous knowledge and experience they have come to expect.

In a panel discussion held last week at the Alberta Seed Processors meeting in Edmonton, Alberta Seed Guide editor Marc Zienkiewicz noted that AAFC is planning to reduce its activities in regard to field-ready cultivar development. Who will fill the void, and what do farmers need to know? He was joined by three panelists: Lauren Comin, Seeds Canada policy director based in Calgary; Jeremy Boychyn, research director for Alberta Grains; and Jodi Souter, owner of J4 Agri-Science in Saskatoon. Regional Differences and Crop-Specific Needs “It’s very crop-specific and location-specific,” said Souter, a farmer and plant breeder. “There’s a big difference between agriculture in the East and the W
