The Manitoba Egg Farmers Learning and Research Centre at the University of Manitoba's Glenlea Research Station.
The new 22 thousand square foot facility is the first interpretive egg/layer research, education, and training facility in Canada.
Agriculture Minister Derek Johnson says the Province partnered with the Government of Canada through the Canadian Agricultural Partnership to provide $1.5 million in funding to support ongoing research at UM through the Glenlea Research Station.
"We look forward to seeing this research put into action in advancing Manitoba’s egg production industry."
Manitoba Egg Farmers Chair Catherine Kroeker-Klassen says the facility is equipped with the latest state-of-the-art equipment, smart internet cloud-based technologies and is designed to foster collaborations to advance Manitoba’s egg industry for the next 20 years and beyond.
