Ontario farmers looking for the latest performance and variety data for corn, soybeans, grains and beans can now compare and contrast different products with just one site: GoCrops.ca.
The complete revamp and modernization of four legacy sites: GoCorn.net, GoCerials.ca, GoBeans.ca and GoSoy.ca is a joint effort between the Ontario Corn Commission (OCC) and the Ontario Grain Commission (OCCC). This is the result. , the Ontario Pulse Crops Commission (OPCC), and the Ontario Soybean and Canola Commission (OSACC) are participating with support from Ontario’s grain farmers.

GoCrops.ca provides a way for a farmer to access all of this information in one easy-to-access place, said Matthew Czerwinski, GFO’s principal researcher.
The development of GoCrops.ca was partially funded by the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, Grain Farmers of Ontario, and the Ontario Pulse Crops Board.
