New Ontario beef research centre opens in Elora

It’s a brand new facility that could have a big impact on beef farmers in our area.

On Wednesday in Elora, a new Ontario beef research centre opened its doors for the first time with officials saying that it will give farmers access to the latest technologies and findings on health, welfare and production.

The new centre supports research related to animal welfare, reproduction and nutrition as well as meat quality and safety.

It contains two 5,530-square-metre research barns, handling facilities and offices and 200 acres of land to produce feed and it will house around 750 cattle, which doubles its current livestock capacity.

The beef centre is adjacent to the Ontario Dairy Research Centre and the soon-to-be constructed Ontario Swine Research Centre at the Elora Research Station.
