""Almost all agricultural commodities are facing existential threats and significant uncertainty. War has triggered supply chain disruptions and is pushing up input costs.""
""Agriculture should be taking a 'whole plate' approach to addressing these issues and not trying to fix things one commodity at a time.""
""The Canadian Federation of Agriculture (CFA) has brought together a coalition under the banner 'Let's Grow Canada' to support policies that will encourage investment in research and development.""
""Canada is currently in last place in investment in agriculture research among the top seven countries of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development.""
Canadian agriculture faces significant challenges, including supply chain disruptions and rising input costs due to war and trade uncertainties. Protectionism is increasing globally, impacting trade relationships. A unified approach is necessary to tackle these issues collectively rather than focusing on individual commodities. Initiatives like the Canadian Federation of Agriculture's coalition and CropLife Canada's efforts aim to enhance investment in agricultural research, which is crucial for Canada to improve its standing in agricultural innovation and become a global food leader.
