LEARN MORE ABOUT OUR SERVICES
“Food is the new oil, even if most of the world – including Canada – hasn’t realized it yet.” This provocative title of an article in the Financial Post describes the opportunities of farmland in Canada.
Apart from the potential of farming and developing vertical value chains of agri-food, the article pinpoints to another aspect of Canadian agriculture: sustainability.
Agriculture is responsible for about 10 per cent of global emissions, but Canada’s farmers and processors are greener than many of their peers, since they account for about eight per cent of Canadian emissions. That suggests they could be part of the solution to climate change, giving the industry a comparative advantage as the world’s biggest economies strive to meet net-zero goals.

Our vision for sustainability is reflected in the day-to-day operations of our farmers and foresters caring about a regenerative approach to farming & food as well as wild life & plants. Learn more about our engagement towards food security, carbon reduction and biodiversity here.
