ONTARIO FORAGE CROPS COMMITTEE
The Ontario Forage Crops Committee (OFCC) is made up of
representatives of Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, the Canadian Seed Growers
Association, the Canadian Seed Trade Association, the Dairy Farmers of Ontario,
the Ontario Cattlemen's Association, the Ontario Forage Council, the Ontario
Ministry of Agriculture and Food, the Ontario Soil and Crop Improvement
Association, and the University of Guelph.
The OFCC reviews research work on forage species and uses this
information to prepare production recommendations. As part of this effort, the
committee evaluates under Ontario conditions the performance of experimental
varieties of forages. Tests are conducted each year by the following
co-operative agencies: Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada Research Station at
Kapuskasing and the University of Guelph research stations at Elora, Huron Park,
Kemptville, New Liskeard, and Thunder Bay.
