Surplus farm houses

Over the last year and a half in Perth County we have had the surplus farm house issue visited twice. Most recently about a month ago county council decide to turn the motion down for the second time. The issue we divide people easier than picking your favorite hockey team. I don't believe there is a right or wrong answer but my problem is if it has been defeated twice why in after only a month of being defeated is it back on the table. This almost feels like a federal election. Democercy has to be considered some where along the line perhaps we have to have the best 3 out of 5. In tough economic times does our elected people have nothing better to do. It is like the dog that has chased a cat up the tree and won't move until it comes down(alot of wasted energy and resources for no reason). Anyway just wanting to hear other thoughts on the severance of surplus farm houses. Yes or No

I have several farm houses that I rent out and can see the merits of both sides of this argument. I do not think I want to sell mine . I would like to rent them out to some one that would take care of them. I am not interested in making a lot of money from them I would just like to breakeven, and have my building maintained.As renters come and go the the building seems to decline. I can not believe there are not people out there that would fulfill this goal, but they seem to be few and far between in my experience. It would be nice to be able to be to participate in some program for the distressed or under privileged that would help ensure payment and find the right tenants.

Not so happy landlord

New Check-Off Collection Rules Aim to Streamline Interprovincial Sales and Strengthen Provincial Beef Programs

As of August 1, 2025, changes to Canada’s beef check-off collection rules will come into effect in BC, Alberta and Saskatchewan to bring greater consistency and fairness to how levies are collected across Canada. Under the new guidelines, the check-off rate applied to a cattle sale will now align with the seller’s home province, regardless of where the sale takes place. This change ensures that beef producers’ contributions continue to support the programs and initiatives of their own province—even when cattle are sold outside of it. “This is about fairness and alignment,” said Trevor Welch, Chair, Canadian Beef Check-Off Agency. “Producers, provincial cattle associations and other stakeholders have been asking for a more consistent system that reflects their home province’s priorities, especially as interprovincial marketing and transport becomes more common. This change delivers on that.” What’s Changing: Effective August 1, 2025, the check-off rate applied at sale will be determ

Protein Industries Canada and Nurasa Launch Program to Expand Global Reach of Canadian Plant-Based Companies into the Asia-Pacific Market

Today at an event in Singapore, witnessed by Minister MacDonald, Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Protein Industries Canada announced a new international partnership with Nurasa, a leading food innovation and commercialization partner based in Singapore. The partnership will help Canadian companies accelerate entry into the fast-growing Asia-Pacific market—one of the world’s largest and most dynamic regions for plant-based food innovation. "Canadian innovation is driving the global shift toward sustainable food solutions.” Said the Honourable Melanie Joly, Minister of Industry and Minister responsible for Canada Economic Development for Quebec Regions. “By supporting our plant-based companies as they expand into new markets like the Asia-Pacific, we are helping them scale up, create good jobs at home, and showcase Canadian expertise on the world stage. This partnership is another example of how the Global Innovation Clusters are helping Canadian businesses succeed both at

From a tough crop year to livestock feed gains

The 2025 crop year continues to be challenging in some regions of Alberta. Agriculture Financial Services Corporation (AFSC) has adjusted the low yield allowance, enabling farmers to salvage crops for livestock feed in an effort to reduce producers’ feed-related costs. The low yield allowance is a standard part of production insurance and is meant for situations where there may not be value in harvesting for grain (e.g. low yield due to extreme heat and severe drought). “I’ve spoken with livestock and crop producers in Alberta who are worried about the impact that dry conditions could have this year. Changing the yield threshold will give them some breathing room, so they can make the best decisions for their operations.” Heath MacDonald, federal Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada “The impact of ongoing dry conditions in some regions of the province is concerning for Alberta’s agricultural community. This adjustment lets producers act swiftly to salvage crops for livesto

Building new economic bridges with Mexico

The Premier will meet with government officials, private sector and industry leaders to encourage new investment and trade with Alberta and to strengthen one of Alberta’s most important trade relationships. This mission will focus on identifying synergies in Alberta and Mexico’s energy and agriculture sectors so the province can leverage new market opportunities for Alberta companies, attract new investment to our province and lay the groundwork for new deals with trade partners across Mexico. Premier Danielle Smith will also champion Alberta as a strategic trade and investment partner with strengths in agrifood, forestry, technology, tourism and manufacturing that will allow both Alberta and Mexico to capitalize on mutually beneficial growth across core industries for generations to come. “Alberta’s government has made a commitment to Albertans that we will pursue new opportunities, diversify our markets and secure new trade and investment ties around the globe, and my mission to M
