The membership of this committee is composed of representatives from different organizations in Ontario involved with the production of cereal crops. The mandate of the OCCC is to guide the production of wheat, barley, and oat crops in Ontario through variety registration. The committee meets two or three times a year to discuss different issues related to cereal crops. On occasion, the committee has to give its input on specialty crops such as buckwheat, triticale, or spelt for merit requirements. CFIA is requesting that all stakeholders look at the proposal and submit comments by March 31, 2001.
