Keystone Agricultural Producers has announced a partnership with the Canadian Young Farmers Forum to present the Manitoba Young Farmers Conference that will take place on March 5th at the Victoria Inn Hotel in Winnipeg.
The event is part of KAP's focus on supporting young farmers to ensure the sustainability of the agricultural sector.
The event will focus on strategies to improve on-farm efficiency. Speakers will demonstrate how analyzing data and using regenerative production practices can lower costs and improve profitability.
KAP program manager, Thea Green said that young farmers need the tools and strategies to remain competitive in the global marketplace.
“We know that creating efficiencies on the farm is a top priority for our young farmers, and practical learning opportunities like this event will put Manitoba young farmers at a distinct advantage over their peers,” said Green.
KAP aims to address issues that have been discussed at multiple focus group consultations through the conference.
The event will end with a panel of Manitoban farmers who will share the strategies that have worked best for them.
The cost to attend the conference is $50. Lunch and two coffee breaks will be included.
