"I’m very pleased that the C.D. Howe Institute is taking a focused interest in agriculture, food and all that Canada has to offer, and to be given an opportunity to contribute my insights to its work in this critical area.’
Mussell has also been president of the Canadian Agricultural Economics Society, chair of the Ontario Pork Industry Council, and has served on the board of the Progressive Dairy Operators.”
He founded the George Morrris Center at the University of Guelph and Agri-Food Economic Systems.
He will continue to work with Agri-Food Economic Systems.
