OFA provided comments to Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) regarding Canada’s 2030 National Biodiversity Strategy Milestone Document. OFA supports the principle of this Biodiversity Strategy. Action is needed to halt and reverse biodiversity loss, but not at the expense of farmers or food production. OFA believes strategies, targets and action plans targeted at preserving and promoting biodiversity must consider agriculture and agricultural systems.
