CAPI recently launched the Policies for Land Use, Agriculture and Nature (PLAN) project, which will investigate policy solutions that protect farmland, preserve nature and biodiversity, and promote food security. As part of this initiative, CAPI has formed a policy network, a diverse group of stakeholders across Canada’s agri-food sector, that will convene monthly to discuss improving Canada’s agricultural and land use policies. The summary from the first meeting held in September 2024 can be found below:
