The purpose of the collaboration is to use existing evidence and emerging research to inform dialogue that can unlock new thinking and ideas. In doing so, the organizations believe that they can increase knowledge and understanding of key gaps and opportunities to deliver better outcomes for more sustainable agriculture around the world. Read what CAPI’s Managing Director Tyler McCann has to say about this new collaboration: "Around the world agriculture must play a significant role in meeting critical economic, environmental, and food security goals. These are global challenges that require local solutions. While the local solutions will be different, there will be common threads, including the need for profitability, productivity, and growth. This is a significant opportunity to work together to advance policies that position agriculture as a solution-provider for these critical challenges."

This cohort’s research focus will be ‘the Intersection of Trade, Environment, and Food Security’ and will cover five research papers, webinars, workshops, an advisory council, and professional development over the next two years. CAPI proposes that our next Doctoral Fellowship Program develop expertise, original tools and strategies to identify the pressures on Canada’s land base arising from agricultural producers who are reacting to the new more uncertain trade environment, record high commodity prices, climate change and global food security concerns, by innovating and transforming their decision-making. CAPI aims to create a dynamic, innovative and transdisciplinary research network specializing in this field. The program will run over two years (2022-2024) and will be guided by a mentoring and advisory team of industry, government and academic experts drawn from CAPI’s extensive stakeholder network. CAPI will fund up to four Ph.D. students whose research focuses on either the economic, social, legal or environmental aspect of trade in agriculture and agri-food products, responding to scarcity and the new higher price environment, climate change and global food security concerns both at home and abroad. Each selected researcher will receive $12,000 over 2 years via direct grants, as well as travel costs, as necessary. The outcome of selected projects will contribute to the production of a series of reports by CAPI, which will be published and disseminated broadly to policy makers and various stakeholders.

Lisez ce que Tyler McCann, directeur général, de l’ICPA a à dire sur cette nouvelle collaboration: « Partout dans le monde, l'agriculture doit jouer un rôle important pour atteindre des objectifs critiques en matière d'économie, d'environnement, et de sécurité alimentaire. Ceux-ci signifient des défis mondiaux qui nécessitent des solutions locales. Bien que les solutions locales seront différentes, il existera des points communs, notamment le besoin de rentabilité, de productivité, et de croissance. C'est une occasion importante de travailler ensemble pour faire avancer les politiques qui présentent l'agriculture comme un fournisseur de solutions pour ces défis critiques. » En savoir plus<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0016OOoql40AUI71U0m6cHAsR8h5_QMDd6DpP216itTarg…> Postulez pour devenir un boursier doctoral de l'ICPA 2022-2024<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0016OOoql40AUI71U0m6cHAsR8h5_QMDd6DpP216itTarg…> [https://files.constantcontact.com/4b5923da701/69e4f9a3-1fde-4d8c-a9c9-7bb1a…]<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0016OOoql40AUI71U0m6cHAsR8h5_QMDd6DpP216itTarg…> S’appuyant sur deux programmes de bourses très réussis, l’Institut canadien des politiques agroalimentaires (ICPA) est heureux d’annoncer qu’il mènera son troisième programme de bourses doctorales.

Cette cohorte se concentrera sur « l’intersection du commerce, de l’environnement et de la sécurité alimentaire <https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0016OOoql40AUI71U0m6cHAsR8h5_QMDd6DpP216itTarg…> » et comprendra cinq documents de recherche, des webinaires, des ateliers, un conseil de consultation ainsi que le développement professionnel au cours des deux prochaines années. Dans le cadre de son prochain programme de bourses doctorales, l’ICPA se propose de développer un savoir-faire, des outils originaux, et des stratégies afin de cerner les pressions exercées sur les terres canadiennes par les producteurs agricoles qui réagissent au nouvel environnement commercial plus incertain, aux prix records des produits de base, aux changements climatiques, et aux préoccupations mondiales en matière de sécurité alimentaire, en innovant et en transformant leur processus décisionnel. L’ICPA souhaite créer un petit réseau de recherche dynamique, novateur et transdisciplinaire spécialisé dans ce domaine. Le programme s’étendra sur deux ans (2022 à 2024). Il sera mené par une équipe de mentorat et de consultation composée d’experts de l’industrie, du gouvernement et du milieu universitaire issus du vaste réseau d’intervenants de l’ICPA. L’ICPA offrira un financement à un maximum de quatre étudiants au doctorat dont leurs recherches portent sur un aspect économique, social, juridique, ou environnemental lié au commerce des produits agricoles et agroalimentaires, en réponse à la pénurie et au nouvel environnement de prix plus élevés, au changement climatique, et aux préoccupations mondiales en matière de sécurité alimentaire, tant au pays qu’à l’étranger. Les chercheurs retenus recevront 12 000 $ chacun au cours des deux années sous forme de subventions directes et d’indemnités de déplacement, le cas échéant. Les résultats de certains projets contribueront à la production d’une série de rapports par l’ICPA, qui seront publiés et diffusés à grande échelle aux décideurs politiques et à divers intervenants.

Is the world full of challenges or full of opportunities? A simple question can say a lot about how someone sees the world, a world which is usually in the middle. Few policy issues today illicit such differences of perspective as sustainability policy in Canada. As the federal government prepares to move forward with consultations on the Green Agriculture Plan<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T9ni9Jp-X7uSbpmrujtyQ2CVmdpwZj00JKMXWAtjBKz…>, there is an opportunity, and need, to consider whether Canada’s sustainability policy glass is half full, half empty or somewhere in between. Much about sustainability is an opportunity for Canadian farmers. The Canadian Roundtable for Sustainable Beef<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T9ni9Jp-X7uSbpmrujtyQ2CVmdpwZj00JKMXWAtjBKz…> gained early momentum due to McDonald’s commitment<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T9ni9Jp-X7uSbpmrujtyQ2CVmdpwZj00JKMXWAtjBKz…> to source at least 30% of its beef as verified sustainable beef. That momentum has built over the last year as restaurants and retailers, including Loblaws<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T9ni9Jp-X7uSbpmrujtyQ2CVmdpwZj00JKMXWAtjBKz…> and Walmart<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T9ni9Jp-X7uSbpmrujtyQ2CVmdpwZj00JKMXWAtjBKz…>, have made commitments to purchasing Canadian certified sustainable beef. For beef producers accustomed to managing tight margins, a premium for selling sustainable beef is a step in the right direction. And with increasing demand in Canada and around the world, these premiums should continue to grow. <https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T9ni9Jp-X7uSbpmrujtyQ2CVmdpwZj00JKMXWAtjBKz…>Read the full commentary.<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T9ni9Jp-X7uSbpmrujtyQ2CVmdpwZj00JKMXWAtjBKz…> [https://files.constantcontact.com/4b5923da701/af2b3895-0caa-4896-ad75-b6bc8…]<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T9ni9Jp-X7uSbpmrujtyQ2CVmdpwZj00JKMXWAtjBKz…> [https://files.constantcontact.com/4b5923da701/3f015ae3-f820-4b7c-b782-488f0…]<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T9ni9Jp-X7uSbpmrujtyQ2CVmdpwZj00JKMXWAtjBKz…> You can make a difference!<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T9ni9Jp-X7uSbpmrujtyQ2CVmdpwZj00JKMXWAtjBKz…> <https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T9ni9Jp-X7uSbpmrujtyQ2CVmdpwZj00JKMXWAtjBKz…> CAPI’s work is only possible because of the generous support of individuals and organizations.

This support from the RBC Foundation will partially fund the Canadian Agri-Food Policy Institute’s (CAPI) environmental sustainability initiative Spearheading Sustainable Solutions over the next two years, which aims to advance policy solutions that support the sector’s ongoing improvements to it’s sustainability. “Canadian agriculture and food is being called on to deliver critical environment, economic and food security outcomes, while facing increased pressure from volatile weather, markets and policy,” says Tyler McCann, CAPI Managing Director. “CAPI strives to advance policy solutions that deliver on the environmental outcomes through our Spearheading Sustainable Solutions initiative, made possible in part by RBC Tech for Nature's generous contribution.” Learn More<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T9ni9Jp-X7uSbpmrujtyQ2CVmdpwZj00JKMXWAtjBKz…> One Great Graph<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T9ni9Jp-X7uSbpmrujtyQ2CVmdpwZj00JKMXWAtjBKz…> Sustainability Targets Expressed by Organizations, Companies, and Governments<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T9ni9Jp-X7uSbpmrujtyQ2CVmdpwZj00JKMXWAtjBKz…> [https://files.constantcontact.com/4b5923da701/e6c37a25-a993-4ba1-9436-cacb4…]<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T9ni9Jp-X7uSbpmrujtyQ2CVmdpwZj00JKMXWAtjBKz…> Farm profitability is easy to measure; sustainability is not. The industrialization of agriculture has resulted in greater profitability, but not necessarily more sustainable farming. How can this be rectified? This month’s One Great Graph is a suggestion of exactly how to measure Canada’s agri-food sustainability. These targets are the result of consultations with organizations, companies, and government representatives in Canada undertaken by DMci Strategies in 2020. The most oft-mentioned target was sourcing sustainable ingredients (44% of participants), followed by the measurement of greenhouse gas emissions and land use (16% each). By balancing economic profitably with sustainability targets, Canada can be a global leader in agri-food production as it continues to feed Canadians and the world. McInnes, David.

This month’s featured reading describes how these metrics were impacted after implementing green practices on 34 Swedish farms. “A Green Lean approach to global competition and climate change in the agricultural sector – A Swedish case study” (Barth and Melin, 2018) serves as a model for any developed agri-food sector wanting to balance productivity and environmental outcomes, while being realistic about constraints such as time, labour, and technology. The Green Lean methodology uses lean processing tools (such as audit reports) to achieve green outcomes such as lower emissions. Many of these 34 farms experienced real change: from reduced transport time and increased feed efficiency, to fewer working hours and better team morale. If Canada plans to invest in its agrifood sector, this case study is an honest look at what works and what doesn’t in terms of delivering business and environmental outcomes. Barth, H., & Melin, M.

Le monde est-il plein de défis ou plein d'opportunités? Une simple question peut en dire long sur la façon dont une personne voit le monde, un monde qui se trouve généralement au milieu. De nos jours, peu de questions politiques suscitent autant de différences de point de vue que la politique de durabilité au Canada. Alors que le gouvernement fédéral se prépare à aller de l'avant avec les consultations sur le Plan d’agriculture durable<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T9ni9Jp-X7uSbpmrujtyQ2CVmdpwZj00JKMXWAtjBKz…>, il est possible, et nécessaire, de se demander si le verre de la politique de durabilité du Canada est à moitié plein, à moitié vide, ou quelque part entre les deux. La durabilité est en grande partie une opportunité pour les agriculteurs canadiens. La Table ronde canadienne sur le bœuf durable<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T9ni9Jp-X7uSbpmrujtyQ2CVmdpwZj00JKMXWAtjBKz…> a pris son essor grâce à l'engagement de McDonald's d'approvisionner au moins de 30 % de sa production en bœuf durable vérifié. Cet élan s'est amplifié au cours de la dernière année, car des restaurants et des détaillants, dont Loblaws et Walmart, se sont engagés à acheter du bœuf canadien certifié durable. Pour les producteurs de bœuf dontles marges serrées sont la norme, une prime pour la vente de bœuf durable est un pas dans la bonne direction. Et avec une demande croissante au Canada et dans le monde, ces primes devraient continuer à augmenter.
