@AgriCanadian estime que chaque jour devrait être la #JournéeMondialeDeLAlimentation. Au Canada, des travailleurs du secteur agroalimentaire exceptionnels produisent les aliments qu'il nous faut. Pourtant, bien trop de personnes sont confrontées à l’insécurité alimentaire.
@AgriCanadian believes every day should be #WorldFoodDay. We live in Canada, where great #agrifood workers produce the nutritious food we need. Far too many face food insecurity. Join us in thanking the producers, processors, and retailers who help keep us fed.

Collective Arts a construit son activité à Hamilton autour de l’idée de faire les choses différemment — en associant des boissons artisanales à des artistes et musiciens émergents tout en trouvant constamment de nouvelles façons d’innover et de se développer. L’entreprise continue de s’étendre vers de nouvelles catégories et marchés, en tirant parti de son identité de marque pour établir de solides partenariats nationaux et internationaux et fidéliser les consommateurs.

For over 30 years, farmers have attended Canada’s Outdoor Farm Show in Woodstock, ON, to learn about the newest and most innovative products and technology in agriculture. The Outdoor Farm Show features over 650 exhibitors of farm products and services, demonstrations of crops, livestock and technology, and an Innovations Program.
I was honoured to speak at the University of Guelph reception and hear about the innovative work underway across the agriculture sector, from research and academia to industry.

L’alliance entre le Canada et l’Europe ne se définit pas par ce à quoi nous nous opposons, mais par ce que nous défendons : la liberté, la solidarité, la prospérité et le développement durable. Une alliance suffisamment forte pour que personne ne puisse nous dicter nos choix.
Individuellement, l’Europe et le Canada sont forts. Ensemble, ils le sont encore plus.
Ce fut un honneur de m’adresser au Parlement européen aujourd’hui.

We're back at Canada’s @OutdoorFarmShow! Come visit us at AP-C2 inside the FCC Tent.
If you're a grower or ag professional, come see our sensor in person and learn all about the #SoilOptix process, helping growers uncover soil insights that can support more strategic decisions in the field. It's been great seeing so many new and returning faces this year. If you haven't stopped by yet, there's still time to come say hi.

Can precision agriculture help rebuild soil while protecting it from further erosion?
Our white paper, Driving Regenerative and Sustainable Agricultural Practices with Precision, explores this through a case study titled "Maintaining Soil Cover and Managing Phosphate to Reduce Erosion and Runoff."
In hummocky landscapes, eroded hilltops can lead to poor seed placement, low plant populations, and exposed soil that is vulnerable to further erosion. In our case study, variable rate seeding was used to increase crop establishment in vulnerable areas, while phosphate rates were adjusted by SWAT zone based on soil P supply and expected yield removal. The goal was to build ground cover, support soil health, and minimize excess phosphate and runoff.
🌱THE RESULT: Over time, increased crop roots and biomass can improve soil health and reduce seedling mortality, allowing seeding rates to eventually return to normal. This is a practical example of using field specific data to improve crop establishment while protecting soil.

Organic month got us thinking… Does organic mean no tech? 🌱🤔
Nope! Organic farms can use things like sensors and robotics to help with day-to-day farming.
Organic and technology can go together, but there are still standards for what can be used in organic production!

Investir dans l'innovation et la recherche agroalimentaires, c'est investir dans l'avenir de l'agriculture et de l'agroalimentaire. C'est investir dans l'avenir du Canada.
Hier, à Calgary, en Alberta, le gouvernement du Canada a investi 50 millions de dollars dans le Réseau canadien d'automatisation et d'intelligence agroalimentaires (RCAIA) afin de contribuer à la diffusion à grande échelle de l'innovation canadienne, de renforcer les chaînes d'approvisionnement et de bâtir un secteur agroalimentaire plus résilient et plus compétitif.
