Ontario Variety Performance Information Now Available in Single Website 


A new website will allow Ontario producers to now access variety performance information for all major crops in a single place. 

Officially launched Thursday by the Ontario corn, cereal, pulse, and soybean and canola crop committees, GoCrops.ca brings together four previous websites - www.gocorn.net; www.gocereals.ca; www.gobeans.ca; and www.gosoy.ca - under one cohesive banner. 

The old websites for each of the crop committees had been active for many years and had unique navigation and structures that made the user experience different for each site. However, the crop committees agreed that a more cohesive structure would make it easier for producers to find information and to intuitively use a single site for access to all the information across crops, said a Grain Farmers of Ontario news release. 

Ontario farmers rely on third-party variety performance trial information to guide and inform their seed selection decisions and choose which varieties to grow in their fields. GoCrops.ca now allows farmers to access this information in one easy-to-navigate spot. 

“Providing timely, accurate information in a modern digital format is vitally important for reaching farmers. This new site will help all committees meet this need and we hope to see this become the go-to site for farmers looking for trial information,” said Joanna Follings, Chair of the Ontario Cereal Crops Committee. 

GoCrops.ca was funded in part by the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, Grain Farmers of Ontario, and the Ontario Pulse Crop Committee.
