Investment in research is a long-term strategic initiative of the Grain Farmers of Ontario (GFO) for the benefit of all corn, soybean and wheat farmers. Ontario’s grain farmers have sponsored and participated in decades of practical research that has resulted in economic gains for Ontario farmers. The GFO Research Committee selects and funds projects that target the most important issues in grain production in Ontario.
Within the current Research Priorities document you will find the topics listed first by Overall Research Priority Areas, which are then sub-divided into sections of Key Priorities and specific priorities by crop. With the amalgamation of the three founding organizations to become GFO, we now hope to address all three crops through the overall priority areas: Market Development and Quality; Breeding and Genetics; Agronomy and Production; and Diseases and Insects. Within each of these sections we will endeavor to meet the research requirements of corn, soybean and wheat farmers.
