Fewer fields, higher prices: The challenge facing Canadian agriculture

Canadian News

With fewer acres available and some left unused, experts highlight that farmland represents only about 7% of Canada’s land mass, making it increasingly critical to safeguard what's left to maintain food production and rural livelihoods.
