Saskatchewan Supports Farm Safety During Agricultural Safety Week

To reinforce its commitment to farm safety, the Government of Saskatchewan has proclaimed March 16 - 22, 2025, as Agricultural Safety Week, with a focus on protecting agricultural workers and strengthening safety practices across the province. As a leader in the Canadian agricultural sector, Saskatchewan recognizes that farm safety is essential for the wellbeing of workers and families and the long-term success of the industry. The province is proud to support Canadian Agricultural Safety Week (CASW), a national initiative led by the Canadian Agricultural Safety Association (CASA) in partnership with the Canadian Centre for Rural and Agricultural Health (CCRAH). Held every March, this initiative reminds producers to make safety a daily priority, as reflected in the week's hashtag, #FarmSafetyEveryday. "Farm safety goes beyond everyday routines," Agriculture Minister Daryl Harrison said. "It is also about being ready for the unexpected. This week is a great opportunity for producers t

FCC launches Trade Disruption Customer Support program for agriculture and food industry

To support the Canadian agriculture and food industry as U.S. tariffs are implemented, Farm Credit Canada is providing $1 billion in new lending to help alleviate financial challenges. “There is no relationship in the world like the one Canada shares with the United States, and that certainly extends to our agriculture sectors. Our supply chains are highly integrated, and our producers rely on fair access to the U.S. market. These unjustified tariffs will have a direct impact on them,” said the Honourable Lawrence MacAulay, Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food. “Building on our Team Canada response, FCC will be providing financial support to the sector as we adapt to the challenges ahead, so our farmers can keep their operations going and continue producing the best products in the world.” “We know that agriculture and food producers across Canada are bracing for uncertainty,” said Justine Hendricks FCC president and CEO. “Agribusinesses, farm operations and food processors are key

Canada’s farmland values continued to climb in 2024, FCC reports

The average value of Canadian farmland continued its steady climb in 2024, increasing by 9.3 per cent, slightly less than the 11.5 per cent increase reported in 2023, according to the latest FCC Farmland Values Report. “The increase in Canadian farmland values in 2024 reflects an enduring strength in demand for farmland amid some pressures on commodity prices,” said J.P. Gervais, FCC’s chief economist. “The limited supply of farmland available for sale combined with lower borrowing costs resulted in an increase in the average price of farmland across the country.” The highest increases were observed in regions with strong agricultural activity and favourable growing conditions. In 2024, Saskatchewan again led with a 13.1 per cent gain in average farmland values, and British Columbia recorded growth of 11.3 per cent. All other provinces experienced growth in the single digits. New Brunswick’s cultivated land values grew by 9.0 per cent, Quebec reported a 7.7 per cent change and Alber
