THE REAL STORY OF AG Canadian agriculture plays a big role in creating a more sustainable world for all of us. Lets spread the word and change peoples perception about ag. Get more facts like the ones above at AgMoreThanEver.ca. As we mark the United Nations International Year of the Soils in 2015 its a great moment to celebrate the role Canadian ag has played in decreasing soil erosion. According to Statistics Canada more than half of all farmland in Canada is now cultivated using minimum tillage practices drastically improving the quality of our soil in various areas of production. Less tillage and more direct seeding on Canadian farmland has also meant weve been burning far less fuel. Add that to the rapid adoption of new technology like GPS and unmanned aerial vehicles and were drastically reducing our fuel emissions. Not only is this helping the environment but its also making our industry more efficient. Our sustainable actions arent just restricted to crops. Grazing livestock ensures were using the available land in the most efficient and sustainable way possible. While crops cant grow everywhere our animals can feed and thrive in areas where not much else can.
