Federal, Provincial and Territorial Agriculture Ministers meet in New Brunswick

Ministers discussed a number of key issues from the recent disruptions at the Port of Vancouver, to the Clean Fuel Regulations and honey bee health.

A key issue of discussion at the table was the extreme weather situations currently impacting producers including drought and wildfires with Ministers agreeing that innovation, scientific research and development, and collaboration play key roles in continuing to increase productivity and economic growth while protecting the environment.

Ministers agreed to work together to share data in order to complete the AgriRecovery assessments that came in from Alberta and Saskatchewan.

They also committed to ensuring producers have access to a full suite of Business Risk Management (BRM) programs that are timely and reliable and agreed to the implementation of an optional new model.
