Canola Council Of Canada Sets Priorities For The Future

The Canola Council of Canada (CCC) is setting its targets for the future.
 
Looking ahead to the year 2025, the three main priorities for the CCC are sustainable and reliable supply, differentiated value, and stable and open trade.
 
Brian Innes is the vice president of government relations.
 
"The first [goal] is around sustainable supply," he said. "That involves getting our canola yields up to 52 bushels average per acre across western Canada by 2025. We're going to do that by increasing profitability, increasing sustainability, and also making sure that we reduce production risk for growers in the process."
 
Innes says a sustainable supply can be made possible by getting research that's on the bench, out into the field.
