Election 2018 Priorities

WHAT GRAIN FARMERS NEED

The Ontario grains and oilseed sector is growing. Global demand for food is on the rise, technology is producing more grains on the same amount of land and markets are opening up with the introduction of new trade agreements.

We want to maximize these opportunities and we need the next government of Ontario to commit to four priorities.
