Canada’s Ministers of Agriculture agree to implement a key improvement to the AgriStability program to better support farmers
During today’s virtual meeting of Canada’s federal, provincial, and territorial (FPT) Ministers of Agriculture[1], Ministers agreed to remove the reference margin limit for AgriStability, one of the business risk management (BRM) programs under the Canadian Agricultural Partnership. The removal of the reference margin limit will be made retroactive to the 2020 program year. In addition, the deadline for producers to enrol in the 2021 program year will be extended to June 30, 2021.
