About the Event
Canola Week is a merger of Keith Downey’s Canola Industry Meeting (est. 1970), Wilf Keller’s Canola Innovation Day (est. 2003), and the Canola Council of Canada’s Canola Discovery Forum (est. 2013). This three-day series of virtual sessions will focus on updating all players in the canola industry on:
• State of the industry, trade, end-use products & markets
• Research and innovation
• Cutting edge technologies
• Agronomic issues and the 2020 crop
• Canola fertility is the particular focus for the second day (Canola Discovery Forum) sessions.
Please join us in an engaging, interactive, and informative series of sessions and participate at networking tables to get all your canola questions answered.
“I would like to welcome you to the 50th anniversary of the Canola Industry Meeting, which happens to be part of Canola Week this year. Back in 1970, I created the Canola Industry Meeting as a way for researchers and end-users to work together to drive the rapeseed and later the canola crop forward. Today, having the canola industry working together and sharing ideas is as important now as it was then.”
The Canola Council of Canada would like to thank their core funders for their support, which allows us to host Canola Week and other industry meetings. For a listing of our core funders, please follow this link: https://www.canolacouncil.org/about-us/members/
