# Gluten-free oats - Ontario Grain Farmer

> Katan Kitchens is running a one-year pilot in Northern Ontario to develop gluten-free oat production, funded by Grain Farmers of Ontario. The project targets premium health-food markets and aims to give farmers better returns than regular oats earned in 2016. Northern Ontario had over 26,500 oat acres planted in 2015.

## Why it matters

A niche gluten-free oat channel commands premiums over feed-grade oats, so it has little effect on feed oat prices.
