Grain farming is a way of life in rural Ontario, producing over 16,000,000 tonnes of the barley, corn, oats, soybeans, and wheat that keep the food on Canadian tables fresh and affordable. But amid global economic uncertainty, the cost of growing those grains in Canada is going up, putting our food supply chains and our family farms at risk.
The U.S. has already passed a Bill and delivered two rounds of ad hoc direct payments in 2025 that protects their farmers from this volatility, protecting their supply chains by giving their farmers the certainty and stability they need to care for their crops. If Canada is going to do the same and keep our grain farmers growing, we need government to level the playing field and prioritize the production of the affordable, high-quality grains we grow right here at home.
Protect grain farmers and consumers from escalating prices and market volatility by providing 60% funding for the programs designed to help farmers manage production risk
Prioritize agriculture and agrifood funding to business risk management programs to make Canadian business risk management programs equivalent to those in the U.S.
Raise the Advance Payments Program funding from $250,000 to $350,000 permanently + reinstate the Capital Cost Allowance and Accelerated Investment Incentive Program.
To ensure our farmers can continue to grow the grains that keep our supply chains secure and grain farming affordable, we need the government to provide stability for our farmers and prioritize the production of the affordable, high-quality grains we grow right here at home.
