The Cargill Specialty Canola Oils Research and Production Centre will be opened in Cargill's research farm, located about 50 kilometers from its canola crush facility in Clavet, Saskatchewan, Canada. "The research and production centre will allow us to help our customers develop new products and formulations designed to improve functionality, and deliver nutritional value for their products using a proven identity preservation system that results in an assured supply of product", says Jenny Verner, president of Cargill Specialty Canola Oils.
The research and production centre which was initially opened in 2008 will allow Cargill to centralize its hybrid breeding program in the heart of the commercial production region, while giving growers and customers a state of the art facility for furthering knowledge in canola production.
