Canada's Agriculture Day 2023

GUELPH, ON - The Canadian Centre for Food Integrity (CCFI) announced February 15, 2023, as the date for the next Canada's Agriculture Day.

Canada's Agriculture Day is a day to recognize the work of all those who help produce the food that Canadians and people around the world eat.

"This is an ideal opportunity for everyone to learn more about where their food comes from while getting to know the people who produce it. I encourage all Canadians to join the agri-food community online to have these important conversations about food and agriculture," said John Jamieson, CCFI President and CEO.

Canada's Agriculture Day, led by Agriculture More Than Ever, was launched in 2017. Every year, Canadians from coast-to-coast show their love through social media using the official hashtag #CdnAgDay.

There are various ways to honour Canadian agriculture and food on February 15, 2023:

  • Post a photo, take a video, or write a blog post. On social media, show us how you're celebrating by using #CdnAgDay.
  • Attend a virtual farm tour.
  • Share a photo of a meal made with 100% Canadian ingredients.
  • Ask questions about agriculture and listen to farmers tell their story.

What happens when a farm buys its first Fendt? For Peter Watson Jones Ltd, the Fendt 726 Vario Gen7 has exceeded expectations from day one. For Jack, Farm Manager at Peter Watson Jones Ltd in North Shropshire, UK, the Fendt 726 Vario Gen7 wasn't just another tractor purchase. It was the farm's first experience with the Fendt brand.

Operating across a 1,200-acre arable farm alongside a 250,000-head broiler enterprise, the business has evolved significantly over the last decade, moving to a straight arable system with fewer staff and machines. Since arriving on the farm, the Fendt 726 Vario has established itself as the main drilling and cultivations tractor, earning its place through performance, versatility and efficiency. Whether it's handling large-scale cultivations or working with a new 4.5m strip-till drill, the tractor continues to impress.

Jack highlights its excellent manoeuvrability, operator comfort and ability to deliver strong pulling power at low engine speeds. The result? Outstanding fuel efficiency without compromising performance. Reliability has also been a key factor, with dependable backup from the team at TR Machinery helping to keep the tractor working when it matters most.

?? Watch as Jack shares why the Fendt 726 Vario Gen7, the farm's first Fendt, has made such a strong impression and become an integral part of their operation.
