Anthony Lang of Lang Farms Ltd. has responded to consumer demand for non-genetically modified crops by implementing a traceability system and growing certified crops for local and international markets. The farm business is one of the very few in Ontario with a fully traceable system for non-modified corn. It currently ships 400,000 bushels of locally grown soybeans into Belgium annually, and 600,000 bushels of locally grown corn into the distillery market. The innovation provides a high return to growers and a competitive price to end users.
