@Farmerre1 ENGOs provide important outside credibility for sustainability claims made by Canadian agriculture. The Canadian animal care codes, the Canadian Roundtable for Sustainable Beef and Field to Market in the U.S. all had ENGO members.

The input you provide during the consultations is critical. It will be used to review the Code to ensure it is practical, and widely adoptable by #farmers.
