Grains Roundtable Update

Details: By Canadian Association of Agri-Retailers; Issue: April 2022

CAAR participated in the Canadian Roundtable for Sustainable Crops hosted by Canada Grains Council earlier this month.

Six action items were identified. Of particular note to CAAR members, it appears Mexico seed technology and crop protection developments are more inline with European regulatory developments. Canada Grains Council will be hosting a separate 60-minute call to review these developments.

CAAR encourages members to take action today to support Canada's leadership in agriculture innovation based on science-based decision-making.
