Last year, Farmers for Climate Solutions (FCS) assembled a task force of farmers, researchers, economists and policy experts to examine how the next Agricultural Policy Framework (APF) could accelerate climate action in Canadian agriculture, and the task force has just released an Interim Report.

This Interim Report is intended to provide preliminary findings and recommendations to policymakers and agricultural stakeholders as early as possible in the APF development process. A final report will be released in June.

The task force is seeking to identify beneficial management practices (BMPs) that can reduce greenhouse gas emissions, increase carbon storage and increase resilience on Canadian farms, and to suggest policies and programs that will encourage the rapid adoption of these practices.

FCS is welcoming input and suggestions at this interim stage to improve the findings and recommendations.
