Grain Farmers of Ontario is just one of the groups that is 'disillusioned' by the recent meeting involving Federal, Provincial and Territorial ministers.
The meeting was in Ottawa and Tuesday and dealt with a number of issues including support mechanisms and trade.
But according to the Chair of the Grain Farmers of Ontario, Markus Haerle, there doesn't seem to be any urgency.
"The Canadian government has never acknowledged anything around soybeans, trade impact to the Canadian soybean farmer," said Haerle in an interview with CKNX. "We're living under a depressed price because of the tariffs that were put in place back in 2018 by China on the U.S. soybeans."
Haerle says there is a sense of urgency and used his own operation as an example.
"On every acre of soybean that I produce this year, I am losing $44 per acre," said Haerle.
The GFO isn't the only group voicing concern.
The Canadian Federation of Agriculture, Canadian Canola Growers Association, Grain Growers of Canada, the National Sheep Network, and the Canadian Horticultural Council are all part of the AgGrowth Coalition along with the GFO.
In a release, the coalition says after three years of reviews, studies, consultations, reports and meetings, nothing was done to address Business Risk Management Programming and instead are still reviewing the issue.
