Research Stations

Since its inception, OAC has conducted research and field experimentation at stations across the province of Ontario. Today OAC researchers utilize the below research facilities, which are owned by the Agricultural Research Institute of Ontario, and operated and managed by the University of Guelph through the Ontario Agri-Food Innovation Alliance [1]. Innovative research is continuously underway at these stations, and these facilities also provide graduate students with hands-on experience, as they complete their PhD and M.Sc. studies.
