The work will take place at the University of Saskatchewan, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, University of Alberta, and the University of Guelph.

The BCRC, a division of the Canadian Cattle Association, is the national industry-led funding agency for beef, cattle, and forage research, and is funded in part through the Canadian Beef Cattle Check-off.
