Canadian farm debt has grown to make more investments to support productivity, says J.P. Gervais at #ifma24

Because of supporting prices, profitability looks interesting for Canadian cattle producers in 2024, J.P. Gervais says at #ifma24

At #ifma24, J.P. Gervais says we can rekindle productivity growth in ag by: - increasing our efficiency (the small gains matter!) - increasing our scale (allowing different sizes and types of farms to scale up) - shifting our production possibility frontier through innovation

The reason we create financial statements is to optimize decision-making, says Dick Whitman at #ifma24. People don’t understand the true cost of bad decisions.

Standardized financial statements are the backbone to benchmarking, says Mark Verwey in a session moderated by Steve Duff of FMC/GAC at #ifma24. It’s important to benchmark against yourself and make incremental improvements.

Continuous learning, paying attention to detail and listening to advisors has helped to bullet proof his farm, says Jake Leguee at #ifma24. FMC/GAC’s National Farm Leadership Program changed the way he shows up on the farm.

Resilience is a skill we can learn and enhance, Jack Cocks says at #ifma24. We can help to build resilience by constructing positive stories around adversity. We also need to focus on our purpose, connections, and wellbeing.

We confuse resilience with putting our head down and persevering, says Megz Reynolds at #ifma24. But we need to be able to hit pause and process what we are experiencing.

We have to find a way to adjust the delivery of our extension services based on demographics and farmographics, Heather Watson of FMC/GAC says at #ifma24.

It was a pleasure to work with Ontario Soil & Crop to gather industry insights into opportunities for the future of the Ontario Environmental Farm Plan. Check out our report to learn more! #ontag #SustainableAgriculture

Thanks to everyone who joined us for our annual field day yesterday. We appreciate all of the insights shared by our guest speakers, including @OMAFRA’s Horst Bohner, AgroLiquid’s John Leif, and Alex Zelem. I enjoyed many great #ontag conversations.

Check out this great opportunity for a woman in #cdnag to attend to FMC/GAC's AgEx conference. It's always an informative and engaging couple of days focusing on farm business management.

Hey, #cdnag! There's still time to register to join us in beautiful Abbotsford-Chilliwack, #britishcolumbia for #AgEx2024. The conference is a great opportunity to advance your #farm business management skills and connect with others with a shared passion for the industry.

I look forward to FCC’s Young Farmer Summit on December 3rd. Please consider joining us for some engaging discussions. #ontag

It’s a pleasure to be at Farm Credit Canada #YoungFarmerSummit learning from my fellow speakers and connecting with other #OntAg farmers about farm business management.

Acknowledgement and acceptance are part of the pathway to freedom, says Brett Gardiner. It’s also important to recognize that you aren’t alone. Key points on #MentalHealth at #FCCYoungFarmerSummit.
