The vision of the Canadian Agricultural Human Resource Council is a qualified and motivated workforce that is sufficient to sustain profitable agriculture in Canada. To achieve this goal, the Council has a mission to research, develop, and communicate solutions to human resource issues identified by Canadian primary agriculture.The Council's mission is guided by five activity areas:• Identifying employment solutions to build Canada's agriculture labour force;• Advancing the skills and training of employers and employees;• Increasing awareness of agriculture's HR issues and CAHRC's initiatives;• Ensuring CAHRC is representative, responsive, connected and results-based; and• Operating CAHRC in a fiscally responsible manner.The first two activity areas are increasingly being combined to help connect skilled and trained workers with the employment needs of Canada's primary agriculture sector.
