We don’t usually think much about the risks and uncertainties they face as they produce high quality, safe food for Canadians and the world. Clearly, Canadian farmers and ranchers face risks that most of us would shrink at- from extreme weather events, hail and drought that can make or break a season’s production, to volatile commodity markets, exchange rates and interest rates on debt, not to mention the million dollar investments on farm machinery, equipment and land. One wonders how they can sleep at night! This perhaps explains the recent focus on programs that address farmers’ mental health issues by some of Canada’s leading farm groups, including Farm Management Canada<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001547aaemxpSfpXKZEHR6bM49EVSlOnItJnRj1n9MfrS-…> and provincial associations<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001547aaemxpSfpXKZEHR6bM49EVSlOnItJnRj1n9MfrS-…> and federations of agriculture. On top of all this, farmers and ranchers are constantly reminded of how detrimental their production decisions are for the environment. Social media headlines tout how harmful methane emissions are from their cattle, how nitrogen from manure and fertilizer is leaching into waterways and the air, and how much soil is being degraded through their tillage practices and cropping decisions.

It shows humanity’s ecological footprint, or the demands placed on the planet’s biosphere through consumption. The outer ring shows the human ecological footprint by land use: 24% is attributed to agriculture (19% cropland, 5% grazing land). The inner circle shows the ecological footprint by activity: food is responsible for 30%. The report provides further analysis on the regional pressures on specific species groups within the biosphere. Biodiversity and the pressures placed on the biosphere is an example of a negative externality arising out of the creation of a market. Plants and animals are not the agents who are buying or selling agricultural products, and yet, they must bear the consequences. The work described in this report can help quantify this negative externality, thus allowing it to be priced into the markets which are responsible for generating it.

Biodiversity loss is one such cost due to land use changes from agriculture. Hence What We are Reading this month focusing on the World Wildlife Federation’s Living Planet Report 2022 on global biodiversity is timely. With 50 years of trend data on numbers of mammals, reptiles, birds, amphibians and fish, and new mapping technology, the WWF provides a dire picture of the state of global biodiversity: global average monitored wildlife populations declined by 69% over the 1970 to 2018 period. The report concludes that a nature positive future requires game-changing shifts in how we produce, consume, govern and what we finance so we can restore nature and the environmental services it provides from tangible benefits such as food, fibre and fuel to intangible benefits related to nature’s contribution to our health and wellbeing. Achieving net positive biodiversity by 2030 will help us reach that goal and the upcoming COP 15 in Montreal in December will help with a framework. But we have to start with how to value it.

En général, nous ne pensons pas beaucoup aux risques et aux incertitudes auxquels ils sont confrontés alors qu'ils s'efforcent de produire des aliments salubres et de haute qualité pour les Canadiens et le monde entier. Il est clair que les agriculteurs et les éleveurs canadiens font face à des risques que la plupart d'entre nous réduiraient à néant, qu'il s'agisse de phénomènes météorologiques extrêmes, de la grêle et de la sécheresse qui peuvent faire ou défaire les résultats d'une saison, de la volatilité des marchés des produits de base et des taux de change, des paiements d'intérêts sur la dette, de l'impact des guerres et des différends commerciaux, des pénuries de main-d'œuvre, ou encore des investissements de millions de dollars dans la machinerie agricole et les terres nécessaires pour rester compétitif.

En plus de tout cela, on rappelle constamment aux agriculteurs et aux éleveurs à quel point leurs décisions de production sont néfastes pour l'environnement. Les manchettes des médias sociaux font état de la nocivité des émissions de méthane produites par leur bétail, du lessivage dans les cours d'eau et dans l'air de l'azote provenant du fumier et des engrais, et de la dégradation des sols causée par leurs pratiques de travail du sol et leurs décisions en matière de culture.

Il montre l'empreinte écologique de l'humanité, c'est-à-dire les exigences imposées à la biosphère de la planète par la consommation. L'anneau extérieur montre l'empreinte écologique de l'humanité en fonction de l'utilisation des terres : 24 % est attribué à l'agriculture (19 % terres cultivées, 5 % pâturages). Le cercle intérieur montre l'empreinte écologique par activité : l'alimentation est responsable de 30 %. Le rapport fournit une analyse plus approfondie des pressions régionales exercées sur des groupes d'espèces spécifiques au sein de la biosphère. La biodiversité et les pressions exercées sur la biosphère sont un exemple d'une externalité négative découlant d'un marché économique. Les plantes et les animaux ne sont pas les agents qui achètent ou vendent les produits agricoles, et pourtant, ils doivent en supporter les conséquences. Les travaux décrits dans ce rapport peuvent aider à quantifier cette externalité négative, permettant ainsi de l'intégrer dans les marchés qui sont responsables de sa création.

La perte de biodiversité est l'un de ces coûts en raison des changements d'utilisation des terres résultant de l'agriculture. Par conséquent, ce que nous lisons ce mois-ci en se concentrant sur le rapport Planète vivante 2022 du Fonds mondiale pour la nature (WWF) sur la biodiversité mondiale est opportun. Avec 50 ans de données sur les tendances du nombre de mammifères, de reptiles, d'oiseaux, d'amphibiens et de poissons, et une nouvelle technologie de cartographie, le WWF fournit une image désastreuse de l'état de la biodiversité mondiale : les populations fauniques surveillées mondiales ont diminué de 69 % entre 1970 et 2018. Le rapport conclut qu'un avenir positif pour la nature nécessite des changements révolutionnaires dans la façon dont nous produisons, consommons, gouvernons et ce que nous finançons afin que nous puissions restaurer la nature et les services environnementaux qu'elle fournit, des avantages tangibles tels que la nourriture, les fibres et le carburant aux avantages intangibles liés à la contribution de la nature à notre santé et à notre bien-être. Atteindre une biodiversité nette positive d'ici 2030 nous aidera à atteindre cet objectif et la prochaine COP 15 à Montréal en décembre aidera à établir un cadre. Mais nous devons commencer par la façon de l'évaluer. Le Fonds mondiale pour la nature (2022), Living Planet Report 2022 – Building a Nature Positive Society, octobre 2022.

Invitation for moderators

Hello PS grads, As you all know, the Advanced Plant Science Seminar is started and in addition to the journal club members who chair the seminars each week, we would like to extend the invitation to our MSc students also to chair the seminars this time. This will be an excellent opportunity to get your communication and presenting skills practised. So, if you are interested in joining us and moderating a seminar, please let me know! I will direct the dates we need moderators, and you can choose a date that works for you. Thank you! Lakmini

Hi Claudio, Could you please send this out to your students or anyone you know who might be interested: The Manitoba Association of Plant Biologists is looking for students to present at our next meeting on November 26th. Research or research proposals and any type of botanical research are welcome. It is a smaller setting and a good place to practice for upcoming conferences. Please contact me if you are interested, or have any questions (paige.anderson(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:paige.anderson@umanitoba.ca>) Thanks!
