This funding, provided under the Canadian Agriculture and Food International (CAFI) Program, will assist the CLGA to position Canada as a world leader in value-added exports of dairy genetic materials. The CLGA plan includes market access and advocacy activities designed to create opportunities for Canadian producers, while making it easier for international clients to thrive using Canadian genetics under their own market conditions. "Canada's new government is committed to ensuring CLGA mem- bers can thrive, maximize returns and represent Canada's dairy genet- ics products to the world," says Sweet. "Stimulating growth for Canada's dairy genetics in the global market- place creates opportunities for pro- ducers here at home," Sweet adds. The diverse expertise within the Canadian industry will help the CLGA work towards enhancing pen- etration in key markets as well as capturing new opportunities and raising the profile of Canada's prod- ucts. "Our plan addresses animal health trade related issues in international markets, trade advocacy to increase market access, as well as promotion of Canadian reproductive and man- agement programs abroad," says CLGA president Steve Jones. "We're grateful for the new gov- ernment's commitment to our industry, which will allow us to fur- ther strengthen Canada's reputation as a source for genetic products of the highest quality," Jones adds. Other activities include participat- ing in global access and advocacy meetings, key agricultural shows and providing technical experts for international conferences and train- ing projects on a variety of dairy management, artificial insemination and genetic evaluation techniques.
