Presidents' Council
www.ontariopresidentscouncil.com
The Council was launched in 2004 to provide a forum based on a think-tank model within which the Chairs/Presidents of Ontario agricultural organizations can discuss the broad issues and challenges facing Ontario agriculture. The Council’s membership currently represents 32 Ontario agricultural groups.
Past initiatives undertaken by the Council include the Grow Our Farms campaign which used television and website advertising to showcase the many positive contributions made by farmers to the overall economy of Ontario.
The Council has begun working on a strategic plan for agriculture and food. In the process of writing the Strategy, with the assistance of David Sparling from the Ivey School of Business at Western, three key strategic pillars were identified: economic growth, health and environment. Economic growth was selected as the initial pillar on which to focus. A report outlining recommendations for supporting and enhancing the economic viability of agriculture and food production in the province was released in April 2013. Work is currently underway on the health pillar which is expected to be released in the spring of 2015.
