Editorial Calendar 2007-2008

In 2007-08 the official publication of Canada’s canola growers will focus on new ideas and the people who put them into motion, particularly the growers themselves. This year’s four issues will shine the spotlight on those people who are just like you, and have developed new and interesting ways to make money, save money and improve their operations. Many of those folks are farmers. Some of them are breeders and scientists. Others work in manufacturing and marketing. They all have a story to tell about their own innovations.
