The National Farmers Union (NFU) has written a letter to Hon. Navdeep Bain, Minister responsible for Consumer and Corporate Affairs, registering its objection to the planned use of âSeeds Canadaâ as a business name and/or trademark for the corporation that will form when Canadian Seed Trade Association (CSTA), the Canadian Plant Technology Agency (CPTA), the Commercial Seed Analysts Association of Canada (CSAAC) and the Canadian Seed Institute (CSI) amalgamate under a new governance structure.
On December 2, the four organizations announced their members had voted in favour of this initiative. The Canadian Seed Growers Association, whose members are the farmers who grow Canadaâs pedigreed seed, definitively rejected amalgamation with the other four organizations in their August vote.
