The Northern Ontario Farm Innovation Alliance (NOFIA) has set the date for its next annual Northern Ontario Agriculture Conference, this time in-person, for February 15-16, 2023.

Headquartered in Temiskaming, NOFIA is a non-profit organization seeking to provide research and innovation infrastructure for agriculture in the Northern Ontario area. It helps create partnerships between groups to provide research, develop innovation, and to commercialize agricultural products and technologies for effective use in Northern Ontario.

The conference, it’s fifth such event, brings together agricultural professionals to learn about new research and share best practices in the field, and is a great way for individuals and companies to develop ties leading to the goals of NOFIA.  

The conference was last held virtually in February of 2021, with an in-person event held in 2020 in Sudbury.  

Details regarding the Norther Ontario Agriculture Conference location, guests, and conference activities are forthcoming.

Before trade and tariffs dominated the conversation, taxation was one of the biggest issues on farmers’ minds last year. From the carbon tax to capital gains, OFA worked with the Canadian Federation of Agriculture and provincial partners to push for fair, practical solutions. We saw progress on carbon tax relief and capital gains, and we continue to advocate for modernized farm tax programs at both the provincial and federal levels.

OFA works to represent the interests of Ontario farmers to all levels of government. Renew your Farm Business Registration (FBR) by March 1/26 and choose OFA so we can continue to support Ontario farmers and their businesses.
