We talk a lot in Canada about the size and the importance of our agriculture sectors. But the estimates of what we could be doing are pretty staggering. From new markets to new products, updating ag could be a pretty valuable experience. Farm Credit Canada is a Crown corporation  that’s dedicated to that cause, and it’s now armed with a $7 billion kitty to do it. FCC’s CEO Justine Hendricks talks to host Amanda Lang about winning talent, capital and making ag a Canadian superpower.
