Federal Website For New Ag Policy Framework Input

The federal government has set up a website for feedback on the next agricultural policy framework.

The site will allow for feedback on the current framework, Growing Forward 2.

It expires in 2018.

It will also allow stakeholders to offer input on what they'd like to see included in Growing Forward 2's replacement.

The government says additional consultation activities will be ongoing in the coming months ot gather feedback on the next framework.

Growing Forward 2 is a federal, provincial, territorial framework for a suite of programs, including business risk management.

Federal Agriculture Minister Lawrence MacAulay says his goal is to help the agriculture and agri-food sector be more innovative, safer and stronger.

The feedback questionnaire is on the Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada website.
