Welcome to the Manitoba Forage Council

The Manitoba Forage Council is a progressive organization that proactively initiates projects and conferences which benefit those who make their livelihood in the forage and grassland industry in Manitoba. The Manitoba Forage Council is taking a lead in the formation of the Canadian Forage and Grassland Association. This association will be key to increasing the lobbying power for those in the industry and supporting enhanced forage and grassland research and development. Another project in process is the creation of a Strategic Plan to focus the Forage Council’s path to assist the forage and grassland industry. Of course, no projects are of value unless they are communicated to those interested. Research results are communicated via workshops, conferences & meetings as well as on this website. The Council continues to help co-ordinate numerous events each year and in the past four years has produced over 7 publications including booklets on Pasture Planning, Forage Fed Beef Production, Argentina Forage Fed Beef Production, Developing your Grazing System, and Sod Seeding to name a few.
