Shape the future of beef research in Canada

The Beef Cattle Research Council (BCRC) is calling on cattle producers and industry participants to share their insights on key issues affecting the sustainability and competitiveness of the Canadian beef industry.

By participating in a brief 14-question survey, you can help steer the direction of research and knowledge mobilization efforts for the next five years.

The BCRC allocates producer funds to vital areas such as cattle, forage, and beef research, aiming to foster a transparent, competitive, resilient, and sustainable industry. Your input is crucial in identifying priorities in animal health, forage productivity, feed efficiency, beef quality, food safety, and knowledge mobilization.

Your responses will directly influence the 2028-2033 Canadian Beef Research and Knowledge Mobilization Strategy, ensuring that the industry’s future is shaped by those who know it best. Take 15 minutes to complete the survey by September 4 and make a lasting impact on the Canadian beef sector’s long-term competitiveness.
