Ontario Regional Priorities Partnership Program

Ontario Genomics (OG) has partnered with the Agricultural Adaptation Council (AAC) and Genome Canada (GC) to deliver the Ontario Regional Priorities Partnership Program (ON-RP3).  ON-RP3 is supporting Ontario-focused, industry-academic partnership projects that will positively impact Ontario’s agriculture and agri-food sector.

The funding is supporting proof-of-concept stage projects that will deliver genomics/genomics-derived technologies, tools and processes to provide solutions to industry-identified challenges or opportunities within the sector. ON-RP3 will help industry take applied research to the implementation and commercialization stages. These solutions will be implemented by 2024.

Objectives:

  • Develop industry-academic partnerships that will drive the adoption of genomics-derived technologies, tools and processes to advance the Ontario agriculture and agri-food sector

  • Address industry-identified challenges and/or opportunities in the agriculture and agri-food sector and demonstrate the readiness of genomics solutions for implementation

  • Achieve the benefits of genomic discoveries by bridging the gap between applied research and implementation

Applications are no longer being accepted. Approved projects can be found on the side bar.
