As #EconDevWeek closes, we're sharing the economic engine that AGRICULTURE is to Perth Cty! In 2024, Perth farms and agri-food businesses employed 8,185 people and generated $1.5 BILLION in farm cash receipts! Provincially, agriculture generates more GDP than the auto industry!

Canada has long been known as a global food supplier, but there’s more opportunity right here at home. In this week’s Viewpoint we explore why strengthening food processing capacity in Ontario is key to building a more resilient food system, supporting local jobs, and keeping more value in our rural communities. When we grow, process and enjoy food closer to home, we all benefit, from farmers to consumers. Read the full Viewpoint: ofa.on.ca/newsroom/proce…
