Canadian Alliance launches initiative to advance climate-smart agriculture

January 16, 2024 | World Economic Forum 

The Canadian Alliance for Net Zero Agrifood (CANZA) has been unveiled, marking a significant step towards revolutionizing Canada's agricultural sector. Spearheaded by industry giants like RBC, Nutrien, Maple Leaf Foods, and McCain Foods, CANZA aims to accelerate the adoption of climate-smart agricultural practices.

With agriculture contributing significantly to global greenhouse gas emissions, CANZA addresses key challenges hindering progress. The alliance emphasizes collaborative efforts within the supply chain, advocating for financial support and market initiatives to incentivize farmers. Moreover, CANZA focuses on providing farmers with access to metrics and technology to measure the impact of their practices accurately.

Through collective expertise and resources, CANZA aims to drive innovation and investment in sustainable agriculture. By supporting Canadian producers in achieving emissions reduction goals, the alliance sets a precedent for global agricultural sustainability initiatives. CANZA's endeavors not only benefit Canada's agricultural landscape but also serve as a model for international efforts in combating climate change through agriculture.
