Protecting Canola Export
Markets Starts on the Farm
Over 70 percent of Canada's canola crop is exported around the world and
its reputation as a safe and high quality product is well-deserved and
well-known. From the farmer to the retail store, everyone in the supply
chain has a role to play.
Export markets are becoming very strict about the products they accept.
Requirements in some countries affect the canola varieties that Canada
can export and the pesticides that can be used on canola. Testing in
some countries is being increased for these de-registered varieties
and pesticides.
If de-registered or unacceptable varieties or pesticides are detected, canola
shipments could be turned away causing millions of dollars in losses and placing
future business at risk.
Protect the future of the Canadian canola industry.
