Farmer's attitudes on fertilizer emissions targets AND 5 years of Canada-EU free trade

from Agripod · host Agripod

A new survey shows most farmers believe a proposed fertilizer emissions target will not remain voluntary. That was one of the findings of poll of 546 Western Canadian farmers. The first question was "Do you agree with the federal government's 30 percent fertilizer emission reduction target by the end of the decade?” 72 percent strongly disagreed. Another question on the way emissions were calculated--82 per cent said it was not achievable.Greg Dunlop is the President of iFusion, in Guelph, Ontario. He'll share the results of the survey.   This past week marked the five-year anniversary of the free trade deal between Canada and the European Union. The Canadian Cattle Association supports the deal---but says technical barriers are preventing the agreement from achieving its full potential. CCA general manager Ryder Lee explains the good and bad of the deal.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
