The Ontario Farm Products Marketing Commission intends to change the definition of veal so the Veal Farmers of Ontario can collect more fees.
The commission said “the definition of veal cattle (will be changed) to better reflect industry needs and allow VFO to receive licence fees on animals that are not currently included in the regulations.
The proposed changes would also “remove outdated references to the Livestock and Poultry Carcass Grading Regulation (Canada) from the veal cattle definition.”
Beef Farmers of Ontario supports the requested changes from Veal Farmers of Ontario.
