Established in 1997, CYFF promotes the exchange of ideas and fosters collaboration among young and future farmers in Canada. The Government of Canada's investment in CYFF will help young farmers stay on the leading edge of change.
Specifically, the investment will go towards:
• Organizing meetings where young farmers from across Canada have the opportunity to exchange ideas on solutions to the problems encountered by young people looking to become established in agriculture;
• Host workshops on farm business management practices to strengthen the capacity of young farmers to improve the profitability of their operations;
• Support provincial young farmers' organizations;
• Provide increased information for young farmers through their newsletter and web site.
