National Farmers Union members from across Ontario will be meeting this weekend in Stratford for the annual Ontario Convention.
Among the highlights of the meeting on Saturday and Sunday will be two panel discussions.
The first is on the financial crisis confronting pork producers.
The second panel discussion will focus on alternative energy and the effects of facilities such as wind turbines on neighbouring farms and rural communities.
Paisley area farmer Grant Robertson says he will not seek re-election and will step down from his position as both Ontario Coordinator and National Board member.
