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.

Pulse Canada joined agricultural leaders, industry stakeholders, parliamentarians, and federal, provincial, and territorial Ministers in Halifax for the meetings around the 2026 Federal-Provincial-Territorial (FPT) Agriculture Ministers Meeting, which included a Policy Summit hosted by the Canadian Federation of Agriculture. This year's Summit, themed "Building Canada's Agricultural Growth Engine: Policy Priorities for the Next Policy Framework," served as a national forum for dialogue on the policy measures needed to strengthen the competitiveness, sustainability, and long-term resilience of Canada's agriculture and agri-food sector. Discussions centred on innovation, productivity, value-added agriculture, economic growth, and the policy tools required to keep Canadian farmers globally competitive. A recurring theme was ensuring the next policy framework delivers real, measurable outcomes for producers while supporting food security goals. Pulse Canada also participated in an FPT R

Statement On The Canada-uae Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement And Canada-ecuador Free Trade Agreement

Pulse Canada today welcomed the conclusion of Canada-UAE CEPA negotiations and the signing of the Canada-Ecuador Free Trade Agreement. Both are steps toward opening more doors for Canadian pulse crops around the world. “Pulse Canada welcomes two pieces of good news for our industry this week with the conclusion of the Canada-UAE Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) negotiations and the signing of the Canada-Ecuador Free Trade Agreement (FTA),” said Pulse Canada Chair Shane Strydhorst. “Every new trade agreement is a signal to our growers and processors that Canada is serious about finding new homes for what we grow." The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a major customer for Canada’s pulse industry. In 2025, Canadian growers and exporters shipped $268.6 million worth of pulses to the UAE — over 300,000 tonnes.

Through a highly collaborative process, the Beef Cattle Research Council worked with producers, researchers, extension agents and a broad range of industry stakeholders to revise and update the Five-Year Strategy. Built upon previous iterations, the Strategy reflects both the progress achieved to date and the emerging challenges facing the sector. It recognizes that long-term industry success depends on continual improvements. The Strategy identifies key research and knowledge mobilization priorities to maximize benefits obtained from investments in beef research and extension. It directly supports the industry’s 10-year goals through targeted outcomes that enhance productivity, sustainability and resilience. Achieving t
