The national supply management agency for turkeys is changing its annual calendar by two months.
Starting with 2027/2028, quota will be set after Christmas.
It said the production requirement for the upcoming control period will be clearer at that time of year.
It also said that flocks lost to HPAI (highly-pathogenic avian influenza) in fall and winter will more easily be replaced within province before tend of the control period, thereby reducing the need to lease quota interprovincially.
The first control period under the new schedule will be from Sunday, June 27, 2027, to Saturday, June 24, 2028. That adds
The National Farm Products Council has approved the change.
