Digging in with UFA - Tariffs and AgricultureIt’s no surprise that many people feel anxious about the future of trade, especially with the recent implementation of new tariffs. As we examine their real-world impact, a key question emerges: how can agriculture—both large-scale and small-scale—protect itself from the rising costs and prepare for future, unpredictable shifts in global trade? This week, we’re digging into the topic of tariffs and their effects on agriculture. Join us for an insightful conversation featuring Scott Crockatt, Vice President of Communications and External Relations at the Business Council of Alberta (BCA), and Margaret Rigetti, farmer and Board Director at Sask OilSeeds. Guided by host Don Shafer and presented in partnership with UFA Co-operative, we’ll explore the root of some of Canadian agriculture’s most pressing issues.
