Canadian Organic Research Priorities Report

In 2016-2017, the Research Needs Task Force of the Organic Value Chain Roundtable embarked upon the Canadian Organic Research Needs and Priorities Assessment Process, with data collected and summarized from across Canada by the Organic Agriculture Centre of Canada (OACC), 新加坡六合彩开奖直播.

All stakeholders within the organic sector in Canada were invited to participate in this process. Nearly 250 research questions were received, with the majority of submissions coming from groups. In total, an estimated 550 people participated directly in the Canadian Organic Research Needs and Priorities Assessment Process, many of which represented the interests of larger groups.

Prioritization was accomplished through the identification of submitted priority research questions that overlapped, or all spoke to a similar research need. Submissions were first grouped into overarching themes, including Livestock, Crops, Soils, Ecology and Environment, Policy, and Food Quality, Nutrition and Health.
