Ag Policy Framework Feedback moves Online

Consultations for the next agricultural policy framework are moving online.
 
Growing Forward 2 (GF2), the current federal, provincial, and territorial agreement on ag policy, is set to expire in 2018. In order to obtain feedback to help shape the development of the next framework, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) has created a website for stakeholders and Canadians to share their views and provide input.
 
"On the website there's a questionnaire, it's a short 12-question questionnaire, (to gather) feedback in asking people how they're using the programs now, what programs they're using, what they've experienced in terms of positives, what challenges they've faced, and what new things they'd like to see in the next framework," explains AAFC's director general of policy, planning and integration, Andrew Goldstein.
 
Goldstein says the questionnaire will be available until July 31, adding the public can also submit feedback via email or letter.

Video: The Unveiling Of A Brand New Tractor! Brand New Caseih Magnum!!

Case IH invited us out to an event in Racine, Wisconsin, and it turned out to be an absolute trip of a lifetime! CaseIH is celebrating the 250th anniversary in style!! Very cool to be apart of this event!

We kicked things off with an incredible deep-dive into the rich history of Case IH and the legendary Magnum tractor lineup. From there, we got exclusive, behind-the-scenes access to the official Case IH testing facility to see how these massive machines are pushed to their absolute limits.

But the real highlight came after the tour. We were transported to a location for the main event: the grand unveiling of a brand-new, completely custom, 1-of-1 tractor named "Providence."

A massive thank you to Case IH for inviting us out and letting us bring you guys along for the ride. This was an experience we won't ever forget!

Drop a comment below: What do you think of the "Providence" Magnum?!
