FCC’s Vision Panel and the Canadian Federation of Agriculture collaborated on this survey to gain insight into young producers’ sentiment towards associations and groups in the agriculture and food sector, in particular, their capacity to provide support that reflects the needs of young farmers. The survey covered topics such as membership benefits, events, effectiveness, and representation. The aim was to provide industry associations with a deeper understanding of the types of challenges young producers face and to investigate how to best support this emerging generation whose needs and challenges do not always match those of the established producer.
