Summary:
As an industry, farming has placed Canada in the forefront of developed nations, and historically, farm products have been among our major exports. But the Canadian family farm has also been a social institution in and of itself, as anyone who has ever spent time at one of Canada's many agricultural exhibitions knows. This News in Review report examines how Canadian agribusiness and the family farm are not immune to global economic forces.
