There’s no denying Ontario’s agri-food sector has been hit hard by the COVID-19 crisis. Farmers across all commodities have been greatly impacted. In Phase Three of our survey, we have included questions about employee training and knowledge exchange to better understand the challenges and needs of our membership.

OFA has conducted two surveys throughout this pandemic to monitor the effects on the agri-food sector, our farm business members and to help guide our response. A benchmarking survey was launched in March, followed by a phase two survey in April. The input and feedback we receive through these surveys help us to better understand the ways in which we can support our members and the industry through these challenging and unprecedented times.

The survey should take only approximately 5-10 minutes to complete. Your responses will be kept anonymous and will only be reported in aggregate form.

In appreciation of OFA members completing the survey, you will be entered into a draw to win one of three $50 e-Gift Cards for Tim Hortons. A random draw will be conducted following the close of the survey.

The deadline to complete the survey is Monday, May 18.
