Thank you, Chair.
Mr. Wright, I know the NFU has written extensively about the high-input, high-output farming model, and also about the state of farm debt, which has gone up considerably over the last 20 years on Canadian farms. Ultimately, Bill C-234 is trying to tackle one small part of the price of inputs that farmers have.
I've always been amazed at the ingenuity and innovation that exists in Canadian farming activity. Do you have any examples you can share with the committee of how farmers are really leading the way in trying to reduce their input costs, because that's such a huge part of farming and it really affects their balance sheet?
Could you provide some examples, and examples of where you think the federal government should be doing more to build upon that kind of model that farmers are already leading with?
