Farm Credit Canada looks to engage young farmers

Farm Credit Canada’s Young Farmer Summit aims to connect with the next generation of farmers face to face, says Jason Fiske, FCC’s manager of content, marketing and events.

The Winnipeg leg of the Young Farmer Summit is being held at the Metropolitan Entertainment Centre in downtown Winnipeg, and Fiske said he’s looking forward to in-person events.

The Summit is a speaker tour that will move from city to city between November 2022 and March 2023. It began in Edmonton Nov. 15 and is the first in-person event hosted by the FCC since 2020.

Speakers cover a broad range of topics such as financial risk, transition planning and business management, but they also explore more inspirational subject matter like personal success stories and challenges with family.
