BCRC releases their Year in Review report
Where exactly are my Canadian Beef Cattle Check-Off funds allocated to research going? How have the circumstances of the past year impacted beef research and extension? What has the Beef Cattle Research Council (BCRC) been up to lately? Answers to these questions and more can be found in the BCRC’s new report
The 2020-2021 Year in Review provides a visual representation of the BCRC Results Report, which is submitted annually to the Canadian Beef Cattle Check-Off Agency. The new report offers a reader-friendly snapshot of the fiscal year’s activities and results.
“So much has happened during the past year – from the COVID-19 pandemic to the drought that impacted cattle producers across much of the country,” said BCRC Executive Director Andrea Brocklebank. “While there has been much uncertainty in the industry in 2020-2021, Canada’s beef producers remain tenacious, researchers have proven to be innovative and the Beef Cattle Research Council is resolute to move forward as a leader in beef research and extension.”
“Today’s research will help resolve tomorrow’s challenges, allowing the beef industry to remain sustainable and resilient“
The 2020-2021 Year in Review spotlights a few of the key research and extension projects and proof of concept projects that were funded during the past year.
“I am intrigued by program outcomes and preliminary findings from the research projects underway in 2020-2021,” said Ontario beef cattle producer and BCRC Chair Matt Bowman. “Today’s research will help resolve tomorrow’s challenges, allowing the beef industry to remain sustainable and resilient.”
Each section of the report highlights examples of how BCRC and its research partners are tackling industry priorities while generating the most value from every research dollar.
