Recent announcements tied to Ontario’s agri-food strategy and Sustainable Canadian Agricultural Partnership programming include funding aimed at:

  • advancing agricultural research,
  • accelerating technology commercialization,
  • improving sustainability,

and helping producers remain competitive in a rapidly evolving global market.
The investments support a wide range of initiatives across Ontario agriculture, including research infrastructure, biosecurity innovation, market diversification, and precision farming technologies.

For the pork sector, the continued focus on innovation and resiliency aligns closely with industry priorities surrounding:

  • biosecurity,
