Summary:
Regenerative Organic Oats (ROO) is run by Canadian Organic Growers in partnership with Natures Path, Riverside Natural Foods, MGM Seed and Grain/Bay State Milling and organic oat growers across the prairies. This program works up and down the organic oat supply chain to foster network connections, create farmer networks and drive realistic solutions that will increase on-farm resilience and regenerate soils. ROO focuses on the mobilization of information and resources to support organic farmers interested in transitioning to regenerative, organic, systems-based management. Through ROO, participating farms are introduced to data benchmarking and are provided with the resources needed to collect and understand the soil data that will inform their farm management by looking at the existing state of soils in their best field, worst field and a nearby unmanaged area and planning their regenerative efforts accordingly. Program coordinators will be responsible for on-the-ground implementation of the ROO program under the direction of the Program Manager.
