Unlocking the Organic Opportunity for Canada
Agriculture faces unprecedented challenges, including economic and geopolitical pressures, trade barriers, and climate change. Building more resilient food and farming systems is an imperative.
Organic agriculture is a proven, practical tool the Canadian government already has at its disposal to help meet national priorities for economic growth, food security, public health, biodiversity, and climate action. It is time to leverage it to its full potential.
The Organic Action Plan (OAP), developed by the Canadian Organic Alliance (COA), outlines a strategy to unlock organic’s growth potential and position it as a pillar of Canada’s sustainable agri-food economy. It proposes a public-private partnership model, with sector-led commitments and clear roles for government.
