Knowing your on farm labour needs is important.
The Canadian Agricultural Human Resource Council is preparing to update their agricultural supply and demand forecasting system.
Debra Hauer, the Project Manager, talks about the resources available to Parkland farmers.
“On our website we have a couple of online tools. Calculators for people to help them understand how much turnover costs are in their operation and also benchmarking tools so they can compare their business with other types of farmers.”
They are preparing to send out a survey that will be delivered to farmers after harvest in the fall.
