By Farmers, For Farmers
As farmers, we know how to make agriculture part of the solution to climate change. That’s why Farmers for Climate Solutions created FaRM.
FaRM is based on the idea that farmers learn best from other farmers. By sharing information and ideas, we can all make our operations more resilient and profitable.
FaRM is a free learning hub offering online resources, access to experienced farmer mentors, and a network of farmers in your region and across Canada to help you adopt practices that reduce emissions and build resilience.
Reduce input costs, boost productivity, improve soil health.
Farmers have climate solutions:
Want to reduce your Nitrogen bill, but worried about sacrificing yield?
Ready to maximize your pasture’s productivity, but need some practical advice?
Interested in growing cover crops, but not sure where to start?
