ONTARIO VEAL
ASSOCIATION CELEBRATES 20TH
ANNIVERSARY
The Ontario Veal Association (OVA)
celebrates its 20th anniversary in 2010.
From its humble beginnings in 1990, the
OVA has steadily grown and proudly
served Ontario’s veal industry for the
past 20 years. The theme of this year’s
AGM “Proud of our Past and Passionate
about our Future” nicely sums up the
approach of the association over the
past twenty years and looking forward
into the coming years ahead.

REMINDER TO ALL ONTARIO VEAL
PRODUCERS:
The
new and revised
regulations that impact the
enforcement of veal carcass
weights will come into effect on
October 1st, 2009.
Attached is a factsheet prepared by
OMAFRA that was sent to all veal
plants. From this factsheet you can
see the requirements for processors
to have proper weighted carcasses if
they want to market and sell the
carcasses as veal. This same
information was recently published
in the Ontario Veal News. Each veal
plant will have to prepare a
protocol of how they will comply
with these regulations. It is
important that you ship proper
weighted calves in order to ensure
you maximize the marketplace and do
not get "docked" for overweight
carcasses. Overweight carcasses
become ungraded beef and will be
priced accordingly by the buyer.
If you have any
questions please do not hesitate to
call the OVA office at 519-824-2942
