Join us for a screening of “Deep Rooted”, a documentary exploring the mental health crisis facing agricultural producers across Canada. The film follows four agriculture producers in discussing their mental health and how it relates to farming.

There are an immeasurable number of stressors facing farmers and ranchers across the country, from weather and climate change, through to succession planning and farming legacy.

Through these four agriculture producers, we get a glimpse into how and why this crisis persists in the farming community.

Following the screening, The Do More Agriculture Foundation will lead a panel discussion featuring leading Manitoba producers and experts.

Don’t miss your chance to engage in a meaningful conversation, ask questions, and share your own reflections in a supportive and open environment.

Leave with a deeper understanding of the human side of agriculture. 

Thank you to the Manitoba Oat Growers Association for donating oat cookies for all in attendance at the viewing.

While technology has drastically changed farming, it can’t solve the complexities of farm succession and transition planning.

Family dynamics, legal issues, and emotions require thoughtful communication and judgement.

Join MNP and one of their multi-generational farm families as they discuss and reflect on their transition experience.

Lower crop prices. Higher input costs. Expensive equipment. Sky high land values.

Farmers have faced tight margins and felt the cost price squeeze before, so what makes this time so different?

Join Darren as he explores what the current tight margin environment has in common with the past, but more importantly how this time is different and what strategies are available to successfully navigate the turbulent times ahead.

Tighter farm margins, increased production volatility, and sliding productivity growth in Canada are negatively impacting Canadian farms.

To address these challenges, the agriculture and food sector need to come together to build innovative solutions and challenge the status quo to ensure our long-term competitiveness.

Join Craig as he explores bold solutions and strategies to drive resilience and growth in Canadian Agriculture.
