Banner for AAFC Session

Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) recently hosted a virtual presentation regarding the 2021 Medium Term Outlook (MTO) for Canadian and international agricultural markets.

The MTO is an analytical tool that provides a baseline projection for supply and disposition of major crops, livestock, dairy, poultry, feed, cereal and oilseed sectors over a ten-year period, 2020-2030, based on current policies, macroeconomic and agricultural market environment.

The MTO has been used in sensitivity analysis related to:
   • Global recession (e.g. COVID-19 Pandemic effects)
   • Changes in trade policy impacting supply-managed sectors (e.g. CETA, CPTPP, CUSMA)
   • Impact of extreme weather events on Canadian agricultural sector
