Miscellaneous
The USCA is a strong advocate for all initiatives on Capitol Hill and in state legislatures that positively impact canola. It also challenges and mitigates any proposed policies that inhibit or discourage U.S. canola production, distribution and marketing. Here are various issues not listed elsewhere on which the USCA provided input to help keep canola a viable crop in the United States to meet public demand for its healthy oil and meal as well as to ensure agriculture has a seat at the table on food policy issues.
