CHC continues to participate in several Task Force and Working Groups, organized by the
Organic Federation of Canada (OFC), which have been meeting via conference call throughout the winter to discuss various petitions and make recommendations to the Technical Committee.
The March TC meetings discussed several proposals important to horticultural growers, namely:
- Seed and Planting Stock, and Seed treatment;
- Sprouts, Shoots and Microgreens;
- Protected Crop Structures and Containers (previously known as Greenhouse Crops), and;
- 100% Artificial Lighting
The review process will include a public consultation expected in Spring, 2019.
