AMI Looking For Answers With Specialty Crops Survey

The Agri-Food Management Institute wants to know if farmers today are considering growing non-traditional or specialty crops.

The Ontario Federation of Agriculture is helping out with a research survey, which is also aimed at finding how those who do produce those crops got into them.

AMI notes examples of non-traditional crops can be found on OMAFRA's Special Cropportunities web page.

The institute estimates the survey will take no longer than 10 minutes and all responses will be presented anonymously as a whole once the results are tabulated.
