Moderinizing seed regulations AND Improving farmed animal conditions


Listen Later

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has released a report on the latest recommendations and feedback relating to modernizing the seed regulations in Canada.

The process began in 2021 and covers several areas from import to export, seed conditioning, storage, testing and labeling to seed sales. The National Manager for the Seed Section of the CFIA, Wendy Jahn (Yawn) says a number of the regulations, policies and programs interact with each other and rather than making changes one at a time it makes more sense to take a holistic approach to modernizing the system.

Animal Health Canada has been awarded 13 million dollars to further its efforts to improve conditions for farmed animals in Canada. AHC will continue its collaborative work to advance animal health and welfare in Canada. Executive Director Colleen McElwain says the goal is to build a more resilient and responsive industry that can meet both current and future challenges.
