The 2024 Conference theme, Together Towards Tomorrow, speaks to the importance of leveraging our collective strengths and finding innovative ways to work together to position Canada’s farmers and ranchers for sustainably growth and prosperity for generations to come.
At the heart of Together Towards Tomorrow is the recognition that no single entity, organization, or individual can resolve the complex challenges and take full advantage of opportunities we face alone. It is in this spirit that Farm Management Canada is delighted to welcome the Canadian Agricultural Safety Association and the BC Agriculture Council as co-hosts of AgEx 2024. By joining forces, we aim to further empower farmers, ranchers, and agricultural professionals with the knowledge and tools necessary to thrive in an ever-changing and increasingly complex business environment.
AgEx will cover a diverse range of farm management and safety topics, including but not limited to:
Fostering Economic Resilience and Prosperity
Technological Advancements and Digital Transformation
Taking Control of On-Farm Risk
Utilizing Data Analytics for Farm Decision-Making
Navigating Farm Transition Planning
Attracting and Retaining Farm Labour
Supporting On-Farm Health, Safety and Wellness
Climate Adaptation Strategies and Opportunities
Emergency Management Preparedness
Policy, Politics and Public Perception
Sustainable Farming: Balancing People, Profit, Planet
Participants can expect an engaging program designed to facilitate meaningful dialogue, collaboration, and action-oriented outcomes. Whether you are a seasoned expert, a budding entrepreneur, a policymaker, or an advocate for change, your voice and contributions are essential in shaping our collective journey “Together Towards Tomorrow.”
As a special addition, BC Young Farmers will be hosting their Farm Fest in conjunction with AgEx on Tuesday morning. Are you a young farmer seeking to grow your network and sharpen up your industry knowledge? Join us for a day packed with experiences tailored specifically for you! Farm Fest attendees will join the farm tour participants for lunch and afternoon farm tours before heading to the AgEx welcome reception.
