Posted on July 23rd, 2025 in Agribusiness
Amid ongoing trade uncertainty and challenging climate conditions in parts of Canada, Federal-Provincial-Territorial (FPT) Ministers of Agriculture have agreed to strengthen the AgriStability program.
For the 2025 program year only, the AgriStability compensation rate will rise from 80% to 90%, and the maximum payment limit will double from $3 million to $6 million. Starting in 2026, provinces and territories will also have the option to adopt a new inventory valuation method for on-farm use inventories.
FPT ministers are working together to enhance interprovincial food trade, focusing on removing internal trade barriers and identifying new opportunities to improve the movement of agri-food products across the country.
On the international front, FPT ministers reaffirmed the need for coordinated efforts to preserve and expand market access globally. They reviewed strategies to diversify trade and discussed resources, such as the federal Indo-Pacific Agriculture and Agri-Food Office, to support outreach in key regions.
