An Overview of the Canadian Agriculture and Agri-Food System
This report gives an economic overview of the agri-food value chain. The report begins with the consumer and goes upstream through food distribution, food processing, agricultural production, all the way to input supply.
This report is meant to be a multi-purpose reference document to provide:
- an introduction to the agri-food value chain;
- a snapshot of structural changes that are occurring throughout the system in response to various factors; and
- background data and information to inform public discussions on issues facing Canadian agriculture.
