How can Economic Developers support the Agri-food Sector in Accessing Capital?
This webinar will explore traditional and non-traditional options for farm businesses in Ontario to access capital and how it is important to economic development.
Access to sources of income and capital are an essential element in the growth and development of farm businesses. Access to capital refers to funding, any source of money that will be used to implement the business plan. Capital is used to generate income for a business by buying assets, paying personnel, and contracting for services. Most farms are capital-intensive businesses with investment needed in assets such as land and buildings, equipment, inputs like seeds, fertilizer or livestock.
