ABOUT AGRICULTURAL WATER FUTURES

Agricultural Water Futures examines how climate change will affect Canada’s agricultural systems and the people and ecosystems that depend on them. Our focus is on meeting the needs of agricultural managers and producers in Canada to support healthy, productive, and sustainable water and food production systems in the face of climate change.

Our integrated research approach explores agricultural challenges from multiple perspectives: climate, hydrology, soils, land use practices, economic incentives, and human behaviours. Our goal is to help specialists across Canada’s agricultural community – producers, managers, extension specialists, businesses, conservation authorities, researchers, and policy experts – make informed decisions that will help Canadian agricultural practices adapt to a changing climate, both now and in the future.

We invite you to learn more about our research and what we’ve been up to. If you find something you’d like to talk with us or learn more about, we’d love to hear from you.
