This panel will provide valuable insights on how cannabis farmers can strategically integrate into Ontario’s existing agricultural infrastructure to drive efficiency and long-term profitability. Cannabis is a growing agricultural commodity, and with the right approach, cannabis farmers can access the same benefits and support as other agricultural sectors. We’ll discuss how cannabis operations can register as a farm, unlocking potential tax savings such as reduced property taxes for qualified farm businesses. We’ll also highlight how partnering with agricultural associations can strengthen networks within the cannabis industry and advocate for the needs of cannabis farmers at the government level. Furthermore, we’ll explore how cannabis farmers can streamline regulatory compliance and position cannabis as a sustainable part of the broader agricultural ecosystem. By leveraging these systems, executives can help cannabis businesses reduce costs, optimize resources, and achieve scalable growth in a competitive and evolving market.
