CCA Outlines Federal Election Priorities

Aug 24, 2021

The Canadian Cattlemen's Association is also calling on candidates running in the Federal Election to put more focus on Agricultural Issues.

President Bob Lowe says their calling for the federal parties to focus on a Climate Policy that contains Nature Based Solutions:

"We need the government to recognize that the beef sector is a key part of finding a solution for climate change and maintaining biodiversity. And we need to elevate the ability for farmers and ranchers to participate in and benefit from investments in natural climate solutions. And for the government to push back against misguided climate policies."

He notes they would like to see government focus on increasing Trade and Market Access.

"Of course, we export 50 per cent of our production, so trade and market access are fairly huge. If you want to increase the capacity and efficiency of the beef trade potential, and continue to grow and improve access in key markets."

Lowe says the want to see some enhancements for the economic resiliency and competitiveness of the Canadian beef industry.

What happens when a farm buys its first Fendt? For Peter Watson Jones Ltd, the Fendt 726 Vario Gen7 has exceeded expectations from day one. For Jack, Farm Manager at Peter Watson Jones Ltd in North Shropshire, UK, the Fendt 726 Vario Gen7 wasn't just another tractor purchase. It was the farm's first experience with the Fendt brand.

Operating across a 1,200-acre arable farm alongside a 250,000-head broiler enterprise, the business has evolved significantly over the last decade, moving to a straight arable system with fewer staff and machines. Since arriving on the farm, the Fendt 726 Vario has established itself as the main drilling and cultivations tractor, earning its place through performance, versatility and efficiency. Whether it's handling large-scale cultivations or working with a new 4.5m strip-till drill, the tractor continues to impress.

Jack highlights its excellent manoeuvrability, operator comfort and ability to deliver strong pulling power at low engine speeds. The result? Outstanding fuel efficiency without compromising performance. Reliability has also been a key factor, with dependable backup from the team at TR Machinery helping to keep the tractor working when it matters most.

?? Watch as Jack shares why the Fendt 726 Vario Gen7, the farm's first Fendt, has made such a strong impression and become an integral part of their operation.
