Two new programs are being aimed at egg and poultry farmers.
Officials say the first initiative, the Poultry and Egg On-Farm Investment Program, will directly support the farmers as they make ongoing improvements to their operations and enhance the long-term efficiency and sustainability of their farms.
The second program, the Market Development Program for Turkey and Chicken, will help those sectors enhance consumer engagement and continue to promote Canadian-made products to Canadians.
The two programs have been created, officials say, in an effort to mitigate the market impacts of the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership over the next 10 years
