Speakers

Welcome Speakers to the 2024 ONTARIO Agricultural CONFERENCE!

The Ontario Agricultural Conference (OAgC) is a combined effort of The Southwest Agricultural Conference, Midwest Ag Conference and Eastern Ontario Crop Conference.

This team is committed to keeping the Ontario agricultural community updated with current and timely information.  The combined team is excited to offer an improved hybrid program which includes a VIRTUAL KICK OFF plus three IN-PERSON locations throughout Ontario, providing registrants with a wide variety of interactive sessions.

Most conference sessions are 50 minutes in length (however, there are a handful of half sessions - speakers presenting in a half session will be notified upfront).  When presenting jointly with other speakers, please remember that the time allotment is for the total presentation.  All recorded sessions will be available online until March 31, 2024. ON DEMAND viewers will be able to ask questions via email during this time period. These questions will be forwarded to the appropriate speakers along with the contact info of the participant so that a response can be given.

All OAgC speakers have been emailed an information package.  Please review the important information in this package as you prepare for your upcoming presentations!
