Source Qualified Beef Program


Source Qualified Beef Program

Renfrew County Community Futures Development Corporation, in partnership with the County of Renfrew’s Economic Development Division, showcased its Renfrew County Source Qualified Beef Program.

Fifty-one beef cattle were delivered to the feedlot of Elam Weber on the Beachburg Road and these cattle came from eight different farms from across Renfrew County and are representative of a feed and finish demonstration organized by M&R Feeds.

The demonstration was designed to show Renfrew County producers how to add more value to their beef cattle right here in the County, rather than sending them to feedlots in south western Ontario and beyond. The project also organized a series of Monday Night Seminars designed to help and education our beef producers
