Some key points of Canadian Laws Regarding Agricultural Sector

 

Canada is one of the world’s biggest Exporters of Agriculture Produce after other countries. In 2018, Canada produced the following:

  • 20.3 million tons of rapeseed
  • 3.5 million tons of dry pea
  • 2 million tons of lentil
  • 3.4 million tons of Oats (which made it the second-largest producer of Oats in the world)
  • Soy of 7.2 million tons
  • Barley of 8.9 million tons
  • 13.8 million tons of Maize.

And many more. The list is not yet complete there are several other products as well but you got the idea of how big Canada’s agriculture production is. 

In this blog, we will discuss Canadian Laws Regarding Agricultural Sector so let us begin with our blog.

Government Departments of Canadian Agriculture

Canadian Government has different departments divided for various functions relating to agriculture which are described as follows:

  • Department of Canadian Dairy Commission

Their role is to ensure that the producers get fair prices in exchange for their products. And to give good quality products to the final consumers.

  • Department of Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada

They formulate and regulate the policies relating to Canadian Agriculture, income earned from farming, development & research, and inspection and regulation of the animals and plants. This department is headed by the Ministry of Agriculture (Canada).

  • Department of Fisheries and Oceans 

Conserving and making sustainable use of Fisheries resources is their main function.

  • Department of National Farm Products Council

The function is to promote agriculture practices in Canada and overseas. They promote Canadian Eggs, Canadian Turkey, Canadian Hatching Egg producers, and Chicken producing farmers of Canada.  

  • Grain Commission of Canada

As the name suggests it is responsible for grains produced. This department is headed by the Ministry of Agriculture and Agri-Food. 

  • Agency of Canadian Food Inspection

It conducts food inspection programs before allowing the food to be delivered to anyone. They also check the health of those animals which were being used in the process to check if any harm has been inflicted on them or not.

Agriculture Industry of Canada

Given below is a list of the agricultural industry of Canada:

  • Brewing Industry
  • Egg Industry
  • Forage Industry
  • Buckwheat Industry (It is used for mixes of Pancakes and Pasta)
  • Fish and Sea Food Industry
  • Fruit Industry
  • Dairy Industry
  • Confectionery and Chewing Gum Industry
  • Industry of Canary Industry
  • Grains and Oilseed Industry.
  • Industry of Maple Syrup

Bottom Line

The list relating to Canadian Agriculture Industry mentioned above is not yet completed because this industry is just so wide and is nearly impossible to cover every product. Farm Credit Canada and The Agricultural Credit Corporations are the two examples that provide loans to farmers at very low rates and also give the required training to the farmers and guide them on what they can do to enhance their product quality. Not only this but Canada has a large number of Profit and Non-Profit government-organized companies that are set up especially just to help the farmers in any way possible. We hope that this blog helped you providing some knowledge about Canadian Laws regarding Agriculture Sector.

How Popular Is Anime In Japan, Really?

  Millions of people worldwide consume anime every day. But how prevalent is it in Japan itself? The answer: not as much as some international fans would like to believe. Anime: Japan’s geek gateway drug For millions around the world, anime is their first exposure to Japan, Japanese culture, and the Japanese language. And there’s nothing wrong with that. Anime acts as a powerful “gateway drug” to the Japanese language and culture. People learn Japanese, make Japanese friends, and even move to the country because they’re current or former anime fans. I’m no exception. I discovered anime in the 1980s when I happened upon  Robotech . After I learned the show was a wild fusion of three original Japanese anime, I went down the rabbit hole to see what else was out there. Sadly, at that time, there was little available in translation. I made do with VHS tapes off of satellite of shows like  Dirty Pair  and  Gatchaman  that I bought off of people I found in th...

An Introduction to Anime

  The word anime — pronounced " ah- knee-may" — is an abbreviation of the word animation .  In Japan, the word is used to refer to all animation. However, outside of Japan, it has become the catch-all term for animation from Japan. For decades, anime was produced by and for Japan — a local product, with a distinct look-and-feel to not just the artwork but the storytelling, the themes, and the concepts. Over the last forty years, it has become an international phenomenon, attracting millions of fans and being translated into many languages. A whole generation of viewers in the West has grown up with it and are now passing it on to their own children. Because all things anime tend to be lumped together, it's tempting to think of anime as a genre. It isn't, at least no more than animation itself is a genre, but rather a description of  how  the material is produced. Anime shows, like books or movies, fall into any number of existing genres: comedy, d...

Anime: Let’s Talk About it!

With the state of events today, I think it is important to stay positive and find something fun to do. As such, with the growing popularity of online services such as Netflix and Hulu, I find it important to also introduce or entertain those doing something else – those watching Anime. By analysing its different aspects, such as its history and what makes it unique, my aim is to answer many peoples’ critiques, which argue  that anime is unrealistic, childish, or plainly  stupid. I also wish to provide the necessary information to those uninformed about the topic, which in return can allow them to try out a new long-lasting hobby. For those that are unsure about what this article’s main focus is, I will give a short rundown. Anime, as it is known in Japan, is any sort of animation, or cartoon. The name isn’t even really an abbreviation of the English word “animation”, but instead is the way that the Japa...
