Barley Council of Canada Incorporates

For the first time in Canada, the barley industry will have a national voice with the creation of Barley Council of Canada (BCC). The group announced on Wednesday, that it will be formally incorporating and will be representing farmers and barley industry members.

"This is the first time in history the entire value chain has been brought together from coast to coast on a Board of Directors." said Brian Otto, BCC chairman. "We are proud to move forward as the national voice for barley."

The BCC says that it will be focusing on five key areas moving forward: innovation and research, crop production practices, market development, increasing market understanding, and communication in the industry.

Federal Agricultural Minister Gerry Ritz took the opportunity to congratulate the BCC on its incorporation and says that he looks forward to working with the group to represent barley farmers.

The newly minted BCC says that it’s eager to implement project initiatives.
