The purpose of this call is to achieve specific priorities listed in the 2024 Research Call for LOIs document (selected through consultation with industry stakeholders from the Canadian Beef Research and Technology Transfer Strategy).

Approved projects will be required to use the industry funding to leverage additional funds from government or other funding organizations to fulfill project budgets.

Preference will be given to projects that are one to three years in duration; if the need for a longer timeframe can be clearly demonstrated, four or five-year projects may be considered. Projects will commence no earlier than November 1, 2024.
