Ontario Agriculture

The network for agriculture in Ontario, Canada

Arrived back in Australia from Canada, to be met with the cost of estimated 9.90$ extra a week for carbon tax.  In reality try 20.50$ . The filth that believe the tax payer has a bottomless pocket. Have come up with a way of making money out of thin air.  To tax the public for the pollution that China produces, as 85 percent of our products, if not more, are produced there.  Farmers operating dairy farms, or any animal live stock that requires eletricity Hydro for you cunooks.  Have seen an extra 5,000$ per month to their bills as a farmer has found, after planting 4,000 trees in an attempt to of set and gain carbon credits.  And to add to the terror Smart meter is coming. 

 

But Canada you don't have to worry, yet.    Because all those farms that sign up to Carbon credit scheme by off setting companies like GE,GM, Ford or any other large polluting multi national will find they don't own the land, they farm on.  And must comply with the rules under that contract.  Eg not to disturb the soil as it affects the micro carbon collecting bugs or plants.

 

For those farms in the north of Alberta that now have suffed the same fatight as the 4 Queensland and New South Wales farms 6 months ago.  These animals that call themselfs politians are coming for your farm one at a time.  An of course in a nice way.

Depopulation could destabilize food systems

It’s difficult to argue that climate change isn’t the most pressing threat to our agri-food sector. Farmers, processors, distributors, retailers and transporters have all been forced to adapt in real time to extreme weather events, shifting growing seasons and volatile conditions. From droughts to floods to wildfires, climate change has tested the resilience of every link in the food supply chain. Yet, for all the challenges the sector has faced – and will continue to face – due to climate pressures, it has managed to cope reasonably well. Investments in technology, new crop varieties, smarter logistics and infrastructure upgrades have helped absorb many of the shocks. But there is another looming threat – quieter, slower, and far more difficult to reverse – that few in the industry appear prepared for: depopulation. At its core, the food industry is built on one assumption: that there will always be more mouths to feed. Growth in population has long been a proxy for market growth.

Labour shortages create dragnet for agri-food

Canadian agriculture and agri-food consistently punch above their weight. Agriculture and agri-food contribute $111 billion per year – more than $30 million per day – to the Canadian economy, or over six per cent of our GDP. However, there are still more than 16,000 job vacancies on Canadian farms, and this labour crisis is resulting in avoidable financial strain. With that considered, you would think that smoothing out the regulatory red tape – especially on access to labour for farmers – should be highest priority for federal and provincial governments when the shortage is both critical and chronic, proven with many years of data and evidence. When COVID-19 challenged supply chains, action was taken to secure our food supply, but this level of urgency and priority for the sector appears to have come to an end. Producers and workers need new solutions Agriculture is theoretically prioritized in the immigration regulations, but it continues to be squeezed by on all sides. Agriculture
