Event Description

Canadian Crops Convention 2023
March 07 - March 09, 2023

The Canadian Crops Convention is an annual, three day event hosted each March by the Canola Council of Canada and the Canada Grains Council. This event attracts people from across the grain, oilseed, pulse and special crop value chains to:

network, coordinate and improve dialogue;
discuss and gain insight into advancements and trends in agriculture; and
be inspired to continue a collaborative approach to advance the growth and profitability of Canadian crops.
During these three informative, in-person days, you’ll have opportunities to make connections with colleagues and customers from around the world in a business-focused environment.

  1. Linda Nazareth, economist, futurist and senior fellow of economics and population change at the the Macdonald Laurier Institute, will review the global economy in context of the agriculture industry, and
  2. David Coletto, marketing research leader and CEO of Abacus Data, will discuss the state of Canadian public opinion around a changing world, post-pandemic.

Attracting agricultural workers

In 2022, the Government of Alberta invested $2.5 million in Ag for Life’s Agriculture Labour Task Force Grant Program to help producers and processors attract, hire and retain employees. Ag for Life, a charitable organization, will distribute grants to address labour shortages caused by job vacancies that cannot be filled and an aging workforce. “Alberta’s government is committed to strengthening and growing a resilient and competitive agriculture sector that supports jobs and long-term food security. Ag producers and processors need a stable, skilled workforce and Ag for Life’s Agriculture Labour Task Force Grant Program helps them meet those labour challenges so they can continue producing the food we rely on,” said Minister of Agriculture and Irrigation Tara Sawyer. The program funds projects not only to attract, hire and retain workers but also helps employers build human-resources capacity, like recruiting and onboarding.
