Dear DCAFVM colleagues The Arrell Food Institute and OAC are offering a great opportunity for outstanding graduate students in the new Net-Zero Food Systems Challenge and we are hoping each of you can promote this to students in your faculties (please see below for details and links for applications). The application deadline is Jan 13 - and so we are hoping you can raise awareness now before the break if possible. We don't want great students to miss out and anything that you can do to promote this will make a difference. Thank you all.

This special edition showcases articles written by CAPI Board Members, Staff, and Distinguished Fellows focussing on all that has happened in 2022 that impacted agriculture and food policy in Canada and looking to the future to explore what may change in 2023 and what won't. We've gathered the articles up (and more!) for some holiday reading. Be sure to also check out upcoming CAPI events taking place in January 2023!

While the weather was largely cooperative across the country, not much else was. Looking back over what transpired, one hopes the year ahead will be much more predictable. Given what 2022 taught us about making predictions, it is safer to try and tell the story of what happened over the last year, to understand what might happen in 2023.

Si la météo a été largement coopérative dans tout le pays, il n'y avait pas grand-chose d'autre qui l’était. En regardant ce qui s'est passé, on espère que l'année à venir sera beaucoup plus prévisible.

Le message que je leur ai adressé était clair: « aussi mauvaises que les choses semblent maintenant, elles vont empirer ».

Quatre ans plus tard, les politiques à tous les niveaux de gouvernement ont eu un impact sur les cultivateurs de cannabis, directement et indirectement, et ont affecté la capacité du marché légal à déplacer le marché illicite.

Cependant, les temps ont été mauvais pour le Canada, comme lorsque nous avons dû faire face à des défis importants liés à l'encéphalopathie spongiforme bovine (ESB) en 2003, ce qui a entraîné l'imposition de barrières commerciales contre le bœuf canadien.

CAPI now joins the conversation from an agricultural policy perspective to frame the current situation, depict the medium- and long-term implications on Canadian farmers, and suggest policy solutions. Policy at the national and international levels have had major impacts on the global fertilizer market. In 2021, China and Russia introduced export controls on fertilizer as elements of trade policy, resulting in price spikes. Business closures and pandemic-related lockdowns severely limited the production and movement of fertilizer.

Quite apart from current market and geo-political tensions, the limited supplies and suppliers of phosphate fertilizers are increasingly perceived as a source of vulnerability in a more volatile world. In this environment, producers and the broader agri-food sector in Canada must have an understanding of the situation, be able to update expectations as the new 2023 crop year approaches, and assess risks. This Research Report outlines Canadian fertilizer markets, identifies the key sources of uncertainty, and provides recommendations for a Canadian policy response. Key Takeaways<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001RagxiIXt9ySKavksg2JNvgR_b06ZkfzsiU6PhfO8x3f…> · Global factors, including fertilizer export restrictions, production disruptions in Europe and the Russian invasion of Ukraine, are disrupting fertilizer supplies and increasing prices. · Canada has regional fertilizer markets, and the impact of this global disruption is felt most acutely in Eastern Canada, where imports are an essential source of fertilizer supply, especially for urea. · The 35 percent duty Canada placed on Russian fertilizer following its invasion of Ukraine has impacted Canadian farmers, making a historically significant source of fertilizer cost prohibitive, but given the global demand, has had little impact on Russia. · Removing the duty is the most effective policy solution to ensure the fertilizer supply in Canada. Other solutions include investing in infrastructure to facilitate domestic trade and increasing capacity in Eastern Canada, but both are expensive and long-term propositions.

L’ICPA se joint maintenant à la conversation du point de vue de la politique agricole pour définir la situation actuelle, décrire les répercussions à moyen et à long terme sur les agriculteurs canadiens et proposer des solutions de rechange. Les politiques aux niveaux national et international ont entraîné des répercussions majeures sur le marché mondial des engrais. En 2021, la Chine et la Russie ont introduit des contrôles à l’exportation des engrais comme éléments de la politique commerciale, ce qui a entraîné la flambée des prix. Les fermetures d’entreprises et les mesures de confinement liées à la pandémie ont considérablement limité la production et le mouvement des engrais.

Indépendamment des tensions actuelles sur le marché et sur le plan géopolitique, les approvisionnements et le nombre de fournisseurs d’engrais phosphatés limités sont de plus en plus perçus comme une source de vulnérabilité dans un monde plus instable. Dans ce contexte, les producteurs et l’ensemble du secteur agroalimentaire au Canada doivent comprendre la situation, doivent gérer leurs attentes à l’approche de la nouvelle campagne agricole 2023, et doivent évaluer les risques. Le présent rapport Recherche décrit les marchés canadiens des engrais, cerne les principales sources d’incertitude, et propose des recommandations comme réponse politique canadienne. Points saillants<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001RagxiIXt9ySKavksg2JNvgR_b06ZkfzsiU6PhfO8x3f…> · Des facteurs mondiaux, notamment les restrictions à l’exportation d’engrais, les perturbations de la production en Europe, et l’invasion de l’Ukraine par la Russie, perturbent l’approvisionnement en engrais et font augmenter les prix. · Le Canada a des marchés régionaux d’engrais, et l’impact de cette perturbation mondiale se fait sentir de façon plus aiguë dans l’Est du Canada, où les importations sont une source essentielle d’approvisionnement en engrais, surtout en urée. · Le droit de douane de 35 % imposé par le Canada sur les engrais russes à la suite de l’invasion de l’Ukraine a eu des répercussions sur les agriculteurs canadiens, rendant prohibitif le coût d’une source d’engrais historiquement importante, mais compte tenu de la demande mondiale, il a eu peu d’impact sur la Russie. · La suppression du droit de douane est la solution politique la plus efficace pour assurer l’approvisionnement en engrais au Canada. Les autres solutions comprennent l’investissement dans les infrastructures pour faciliter le commerce intérieur et l’augmentation de la capacité dans l’Est du Canada, mais ces deux solutions sont coûteuses et à long terme.

La rencontre d’intervenants associés à la production agricole et alimentaire avec ceux du commerce international, de la sécurité alimentaire et de la diplomatie pourrait permettre au Canada de jouer un nouveau rôle dynamique sur la scène mondiale, si nous souhaitons nous atteler à la tâche. C’est l’objet de cet événement qui vise aussi à vérifier si le Canada est disposé et en mesure de saisir l’occasion.
