Here's a more cohesive summary of the position(s): Position: This is an unposted student position. Hours: 4 hours every Sat. or Sun. (or both days every other weekend, alternating with another waterer), Wages: My best guess is a starting wage of $16.89+ (this is for a Tech. 1, Step 1). The exact classification and wage will be determined by the Faculty of Science HR people and will depend on your experience and previous employment/seniority at the UofM or AESES union. Tasks: watering and pest control (using water, insecticidal soap, insect predators) at Buller GH and two daily inspections at CTC (Crop Technology Centre) which is our research greenhouse. The inspection is done via an app or a physical checksheet, and you would receive training in the skills you need. Experience with a variety of plants and pests is an asset! Requirements: * Experience with growing/maintaining plants is required. * Summer availability is important. We can accommodate a couple of weekends off (everyone needs a holiday!), but need whoever we hire to be committed and responsible for weekends, some STATs and occasional holiday coverage during summer (usually a day here and there if you are available during the week). * Knowledge of pests and how to deal with them is an asset. * Experience with greenhouse systems and maintenance of old buildings is an asset, but not required. Please let me know if you're interested. If you think this might be a good fit for you, but want to know more, we could meet in-person or on Zoom. Feel free to pass along my contact info if you know anyone else who might be qualified and available. My full contact info is below. Thanks, Cathy.

Thanks for offering to share with Jacqueline. Jo-Anne Do you have (or know of) a grad student interested in a weekend waterer position at the Buller Greenhouse? 4 hours every Sat. or Sun. (or alternate weekends with another waterer), watering and pest control at Buller GH and two inspections at CTC. Summer availability is important. We can accommodate a couple of weekends off, but need whoever we hire to be committed and responsible for weekends, some STATs and occasional holiday coverage during summer. Experience with growing/maintaining plants is required. Most of the grad students I've talked to are interested but are gone for a month or more each summer doing field work, which is difficult to work around. Our current (and only) weekend technician will be leaving us in December so we'll ultimately hire two people. Appreciate it.

This Quick Think Report compares the 2021 data with 2016 and 2011 data, providing analysis on land use and the adoption of sustainable farming practices. The colourful maps contained in this report allow readers to quickly visualize agricultural trends by census division (small parcels in each province) and to compare provincial and regional land use or sustainable practices. Read the Report<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0014siTgVeahexZQmmRC6aECKCiAlPyrdXanypRbe2i--o…> Key Takeaways<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0014siTgVeahexZQmmRC6aECKCiAlPyrdXanypRbe2i--o…> · In general, long-term trends continue: total farm area is on the decline across Canada, farms are fewer and larger, and they are adopting sustainable practices. These long-term trends highlight some of the challenges and opportunities facing policymakers. · Despite decreasing total farm area, land in crops is on the rise, while pasture and grassland are decreasing. · Changes in land use have a long-term impact on Canadian agriculture. Pasture and grassland are important to Canada’s livestock industry but also sequester and store carbon and protect biodiversity. · Census data also reinforces agriculture’s long-term commitment to using sustainable farming practices. · While the census does not tell us why farmers are adopting these practices, policymakers should consider the significant progress already achieved when developing policies to encourage sustainable agricultural practices.

Ce rapport Réflexion rapide compare les données de 2021 avec celles de 2016 et 2011, fournissant une analyse sur l'utilisation des terres et l'adoption de pratiques agricoles durables. Les cartes en couleur contenues dans ce rapport permettent aux lecteurs de visualiser rapidement les tendances agricoles par division de recensement (petites parcelles dans chaque province) et de comparer leur utilisation des terres ou leurs pratiques durables. Lire le rapport<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0014siTgVeahexZQmmRC6aECKCiAlPyrdXanypRbe2i--o…> Principaux points à retenir<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0014siTgVeahexZQmmRC6aECKCiAlPyrdXanypRbe2i--o…> · En général, les tendances à long terme persistent: la superficie totale des fermes est en baisse, les fermes sont moins nombreuses et plus grandes, et elles adoptent des pratiques durables. · Malgré la diminution de la superficie totale des fermes, les terres cultivées sont en hausse, tandis que les pâturages et les prairies sont en baisse. · Les changements en l’utilisation ont un impact à long terme sur l’agriculture canadienne. Les pâturages et les prairies sont importants pour l'industrie de l'élevage du Canada mais séquestrent également du carbone et protègent la biodiversité. · Les données du recensement renforcent également l'engagement à long terme de l'agriculture à utiliser des pratiques agricoles durables. · Bien que le recensement ne nous dise pas pourquoi les agriculteurs adoptent ces pratiques, les décideurs devraient tenir compte des progrès importants déjà réalisés lorsqu'ils élaborent des politiques visant à encourager les pratiques agricoles durables.

Most food processors are “small” and enabling and facilitating their start-up and scale-up is one opportunity to increase agriculture and food’s value, resiliency, and regional impact. Entrepreneurs are the driving force behind increasing that impact, but women and diverse entrepreneurs often face additional barriers to growth. This webinar will present research from the Small Scale Food Processor Association’s Women’s Initiative<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001WhrM6YrHJHt6_uMNaTZ6sBbNCM70Ng7ZLJRTcRLAqzd…>, explore challenges and opportunities faced by entrepreneurs and share recommendations for supporting small scale food processing in Canada.

However, pressure on global food systems was already significant, driven by rising demand and production challenges around the world. This global challenge requires local solutions, with food producers being called on to find sustainable ways to meet growing global demand. This webinar will explore current dynamics within the global food system and consider what policy solutions could be implemented in Canada, the United States and around the world.

La plupart des transformateurs alimentaires sont «.petits.» et la facilitation de leur démarrage et de leur mise à l'échelle est une occasion d'accroître la valeur, la résilience et l'impact régional du secteur agroalimentaire. Les entrepreneurs sont la force motrice derrière l'augmentation de cet impact, mais les femmes et les entrepreneurs divers sont souvent confrontés à davantage d’obstacles à la croissance. Ce webinaire présentera la recherche entamée par la Small Scale Food Processor Association: l'Initiative des femmes. On explorera les défis et les opportunités auxquels font face les entrepreneurs et on partagera des recommandations pour soutenir la transformation alimentaire à petite échelle au Canada.

Cependant, la pression sur les systèmes alimentaires mondiaux était déjà importante, en raison de l’augmentation de la demande et des problèmes de production à travers le monde. Ce défi mondial exige des solutions locales, les producteurs alimentaires étant appelés à trouver des moyens durables de répondre à la demande mondiale croissante. Ce webinaire explorera les dynamiques actuelles au sein du système alimentaire mondial et examinera les solutions politiques qui pourraient être mises en œuvre au Canada, aux États–Unis et dans le monde entier. Ce webinaire s’appuie sur la collaboration antérieure entre la Farm Foundation et l’ICPA : Le commerce et le changement climatique (2021), Le commerce et l’environnement (2020) et Le commerce dans un monde de plus en plus chaotique (2019).

While some view the policy framework as simply a spending agreement, it has the potential to be much more. It is unclear how ambitious or transformative the Federal-Provincial-Territorial (FPT) agreement will be. However, the process and approach to getting to a deal raises important questions about the governance of agriculture and food policy in Canada and whether it is suited to mitigating the risks and seizing the opportunities facing Canadian agriculture and food.

This month’s graph shows that interprovincial exports (blue) are even greater than international exports (green) for many agri-food products. This varies by province and is a natural consequence of some provinces producing surpluses which can fill other provinces’ deficits (such as beef in Western Canada, or processed foods in the East). To make this interprovincial movement as seamless as possible, federal and provincial or territorial (FPT) governments cooperate and negotiate regulations and standards. FPT relations are complex, primarily because of the Constitution which makes agriculture a joint federal-provincial responsibility. Differences between provinces often lead to “thick” borders, which is counterproductive to supplying safe, nutritious, and affordable food across the country.

What We Are Reading this month reports on a recent study published by the Institute for Research on Public Policy (IRPP) titled “Collaboration and Unilateral Action: Recent Intergovernmental Relations in Canada” by Robert Schertzer, Andrew McDougall and CAPI’s new Distinguished Fellow, Professor Grace Skogstad. The three authors each examine one area of public policy (agriculture, labour and immigration) and describe whether FPT governments have effectively collaborated in the past to develop policies and programs that address the needs of individual provinces and territories. Professor Skogstad focuses specifically on agricultural policy-making, given her rich experience and background publishing on this topic. She argues that the Agricultural Policy Framework (APF), which combined elements of bilateralism and multilateralism, has been successful as a collaborative approach to cost-shared programs since the early 2000s.

Le graphique de ce mois-ci montre que les exportations interprovinciales (en bleu) dépassent les exportations internationales (en vert) pour certains produits agroalimentaires. Cette situation varie selon les provinces et est un résultat naturel du fait que certaines provinces produisent des excédents qui peuvent combler les déficits d'autres provinces (comme le bœuf dans l'Ouest canadien ou les aliments transformés dans l'Est). La fluidité interprovinciale dépend de la coopération des gouvernements fédéral et provinciaux ou territoriaux (FPT) et de leur négociation de règlements et de normes. Les relations FPT sont complexes, principalement en raison de la Constitution qui fait de l'agriculture une responsabilité conjointe fédérale-provinciale. Les différences entre les provinces donnent souvent lieu à des frontières « épaisses_», ce qui peut nuire à l'approvisionnement en aliments sains, nutritifs, et abordables à travers le Canada.

Ce que nous lisons ce mois-ci rend compte d’une étude récente publiée par l'Institut de recherche en politiques publiques (IRPP) intitulée « Collaboration et action unilatérale : relations intergouvernementales récentes au Canada » par Robert Schertzer, Andrew McDougall et la nouvelle Boursière distinguée de l'ICPA, la professeure Grace Skogstad. Les trois auteurs examinent chacun un domaine des politiques publiques (agriculture, travail et immigration) et décrivent si les gouvernements FPT ont collaboré efficacement pour élaborer des politiques et des programmes qui répondent aux besoins de chaque province et territoire au cours des deux dernières décennies. Le professeur Skogstad se concentre spécifiquement sur l'élaboration des politiques agricoles, compte tenu de sa riche expérience et ses publications antérieures sur ce sujet. Elle fait valoir que le Cadre Stratégique pour l’Agriculture (CSA), qui combinait des éléments de bilatéralisme et de multilatéralisme, a été couronné de succès en tant qu’ approche collaborative des programmes à frais partagés au cours de cette période.
