The report in collaboration with the BCG Centre for Canada’s Future and the University of Guelph’s Arrell Food Institute said Canada needs to increase its food production by a quarter by 2050 just to maintain its contribution to feeding the world’s growing population, which is set to reach 9.7 billion in less than three decades.We deliver the local news you need in these turbulent times on weekdays at 3 p.m.

Meanwhile, climate change is disrupting supply chains and agricultural productivity. Climate change has already slowed global agricultural productivity over several decades, the report said, especially in warmer regions like Africa and Latin America. Technology will be critical to growing more food without using up significantly more land, the report said.

The three biggest sources of emissions in the farming sector are fertilizer, cattle digestion and manure, according to the report. Many regenerative practices are not new, and are in fact drawn from the ways that many communities including Indigenous peoples farmed for generations, the report noted.
