Pub 360 Feedback Questionnaire

Do you use OMAFRA Publication 360 Guide to Fruit Production?

To help us better understand how and when you use it as well as what information is important to you, we’re requesting your feedback to a very brief questionnaire. This will take no more than 2-3 minutes of your time. The feedback that you provide will contribute directly to OMAFRA decisions on changes that will be made to the 2017-2018 revision of Publication 360 happening this Fall.

Your comments are important to us and will be kept confidential. Thank you for taking the time to provide us with feedback on Publication 360.
