Canada’s variety of offerings

Canada’s food and agriculture products are as diverse as its land, its people and its seasons, with the world’s best-quality inputs processed into ingredients and delicious consumer-ready products:

• Canada exports top-quality grains, oilseeds and pulses; all meticulously bred, carefully cultivated, inspected and certified.
