@heppellspotato: Canada is putting together their sustainable agriculture strategy - here are my thoughts on how they should approach it: 1. It has to be economically viable for the farmer - many farmers cannot take on more debt 2. There has to be a plan to stop the development of farmland. We will not be able to feed our population if we keep up at this rate 3. We need a new strategy for getting the younger generations into farming 4. Let me know your thoughts 👇 #canadianfarmer #canada #farmer #farmtok #Sustainability #Inverted #Inverted #canadian

Ontario is bad. I live in Niagara & almost all of the orchards are gone for wine vineyards. I swear we have a Guinness number of wineries 30min drive

Same in US. My nephew is 5th generation and he’s not making it. Works how butt off. But government interference & inflation is a no win situation.

Anyone ever think of having a program that farmers take on young ppl as apprentices to eventually take over?

From the prairies here... there needs to be value placed on preserving grassland, not incentive for "returning " to it.

But can modern farmers compete with Mennonites? They are taking over in some areas of Ontario

Homes on farmland should have a small footprint but can go vertical to maximize farmland.

How many farms have huge mansions and don’t work the land. Luxury tax for those who don’t farm

Agricultural Education. Imagine trying to farm right now if you haven’t grown up in it. If we need new and younger farmers, we need education programs

What about better distribution methods? Seems like so much goes to waste due to bottlenecks and preferences in retail.

Yes, yes, yes!! We are *so* disconnected from our food. Young people don’t learn anything that would even entice them into farming as a livelihood.
