Event Description

Starting a farm in Ontario can be a daunting task. Erich Weber of OMAFRA will present this course, which will walk you through the different stages that you will have to deal with when trying to start your new farm business.

This course is broken into three different webinars:

  • March 16, 2023 the course will focus on people who are interested in starting a crop based farm (ie. corn, soybeans, grapes, apples, etc.).
  • March 23, 2023 the course will focus on people who are interested in starting a livestock based farm (ie. beef, turkey, sheep, goat, etc.).
  • March 30, 2023 the course will focus on people who are interested in starting a farm business that will sell their products direct to the consumer.

The three webinars will start at 7 pm on each day and will go for approximately 2 hours and will cover such topics as:

  • Business planning
  • Financing options
  • Tax considerations
  • Commodity/farm organizations and how they can help you.

On April 15, 2023 you are invited to attend a free in person trade show where you can meet with different professionals across the agriculture industry who can help you make your future farm business succeed. The in person trade show will be held at the Rocklyn Community Centre and will run from 1-5 pm.

Century Lithium Advances Demonstration Plant Relocation To Tonopah And Provides Reagent Cost Structure Update

Century Lithium Corp. (TSXV: LCE) (OTCQX: CYDVF) (Frankfurt: C1Z) ("Century Lithium" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on the relocation of its Lithium Extraction Facility ("Demonstration Plant") to the Company's site in Tonopah, Nevada, USA. Current market conditions also highlight the competitive advantage of the Company's 100%-owned Angel Island lithium project ("Angel Island") in Esmeralda County, Nevada and its integrated chlor-alkali process as global sulfur and sulfuric acid prices rise. "During the last five years, Century Lithium developed an integrated process flowsheet that successfully produced battery-grade lithium carbonate from Angel Island claystone. The patent-pending process uses salt, rather than sulfur-derived reagents, which distinguishes Angel Island from spodumene and most sedimentary lithium projects globally," said Bill Willoughby, President and CEO of Century Lithium. "Moving the Demonstration Plant to Tonopah lets us show the operating benefi

We're building big in electricity, LNG, and nuclear to provide all Canadians with clean, reliable, and affordable power. As we build for the long term, we are providing immediate relief to bring down costs for Canadians right now – including cutting taxes for 22 million Canadians, cancelling the consumer carbon tax, and protecting and expanding vital social programs. In that spirit, the Honourable John Z
