A perfect cook, every time

Ontario farm fields may be dormant for the winter, but Ontario meat and poultry is always in season.

Ontario meat and poultry farms operate ethically, conscious of environmental impacts, animal welfare and food safety. They are a key link in the province’s food supply chain, drive economic activity in their communities and, most importantly, help feed Ontario — and the world — with healthy and delicious food, year round.

There are a lot of tools and utensils you can use when cooking meat or poultry, but by far the most important will be a good and reliable meat thermometer. The best meats are cooked to temperature and not time. The Ontario Federation of Agriculture (OFA) offers a few hearty meal ideas that are perfect for these winter days.

Video: Syngenta Ag Stories - Reanna Hagel, Channel Marketing Manager

Growing up on a cow-calf operation and small feedlot near Lumby, BC, Reanna learned agriculture the hands-on way with her sister on the family farm. Today, as Channel Marketing Manager for Syngenta Canada, what Reanna loves most about her work is simple: the customer is always at the centre. Whether that's a grower or a channel partner, she understands them on a personal level - because she's the daughter of one. But for Reanna, supporting ag doesn't stop at her job. She volunteers with local 4-H clubs, lends a hand to her farming neighbours, and is raising her own kids to understand and respect the land. Her advice to the next generation? "It's an amazing time to be in the industry - it's going to look completely different in 20 years. To be part of the evolution is very exciting."
