Farmers' resilience and willingness to adapt to change benefit all Canadians. Farmers ensure a steady, nutritious and safe food supply at reasonable prices. Agriculture provides jobs and is a major contributor to Canada's balance of trade. For this reason, it is important that farmers continue to work with governments to devise safety nets to provide income stability in volatile market situations. For this reason also, farmers must be permitted to determine the system of marketing which best suits their production and their needs.
Canadian farmers are the heart of the agri-food industry.
An industry with a bright future.
