Agricultural Technology Policies and Practices for the Future of Canadian Agriculture

Globally, we're at a pivotal moment where challenges in resource sustainability are sparking an unprecedented wave of innovation in the agri-food sector, offering a unique opportunity for leadership in driving productivity, resilience, emission reduction, and equitable profits. Emerging technologies show promising solutions to these challenges, but we are also seeing shifting regulations, supply chain stressors, and international agreements impacting agricultural production.

At the centre of this shift is the potential for innovation to power the Canadian agriculture industry's journey towards heightened productivity and sustainability. This research aims to cast a global net, examining a diverse array of agricultural technology (agtech) stakeholders worldwide. The goal is to uncover the challenges and opportunities that will shape Canada's agri-food innovation policy, bolstering the commitment to fostering a dynamic and robust agtech ecosystem.
