There's a significant pressure on conversion of any possible acre that can grow the high-value annual crops that are being produced right now. As a couple of previous speakers have mentioned, farming is such a high-stakes game now. The amount of money in and out is immense, so when producers see lands that could potentially turn a few more dollars into their net return, they are really motivated to make the most of it.
It really is important that we encourage some of that land, because a good bit of it is better left in wetlands and left in habitat, if policy can be drafted and a lot of consideration made to say, okay, you could make it a couple of acres, but it's worth this to stay in wetlands or to stay in grasslands. You drive around western Canada and there are a tremendous number of acres that should not be farmed. It should be converted back to a perennial cover program as Fawn mentioned.
It's really important that we think about that. I would suggest it could be in the millions of acres that could be promoted to be that kind of cover.
