OTTAWA, Dec. 05, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The fourth annual Farm Transition Appreciation Day (FTADay) will take place on Tuesday January 9, 2024. Farm Transition Appreciation Day (FTADay) was created to encourage and celebrate the progress Canada's farmers are making to secure the future of farming in Canada. It is one day of the year when we can come together to share stories and advice, and to encourage farmers through a national campaign using social media, agricultural media and offering learning events across Canada. This year's theme, Farming for our Future, will showcase how today's farmers are paving the way for Canada's next generation.
The New Year is the perfect time to reflect on the positive steps farmers have taken to secure their farming legacy and help ensure the continuity of Canada's agricultural excellence through effective planning. FTADay is a celebration, and a call to action.
