AgriShield®, a comprehensive risk assessment and planning tool created by Farm Management Canada, is the first and only Canadian risk management platform that meets the Farm Sustainability Assessment (FSA) standards at the highest level – GOLD.

The FSA was developed by the Sustainable Agriculture Initiative (SAI), an internationally recognized sustainability standard dedicated to advancing sustainable agriculture across the food and beverage value chain.

Over 150 companies in over 30 countries including Canada are using the FSA tool to support their sustainable sourcing goals. These companies include Nestle, Cargill, Bayer, Syngenta, Bonduelle. Kellogg’s, McDonald’s, OceanSpray, and McCain.

FSA is used to evaluate the level of on-farm sustainability and encourage continuous farm improvement in economic viability, social responsibility, and environmental stewardship.

Heather Watson, Executive Director of Farm Management Canada:
 
"In an increasingly complex and competitive business environment, the AgriShield® platform not only helps farmers take control with confidence, but measure their on-farm sustainability practices against one of the top agricultural sustainability standards in the world all at the same time."

"We are proud to be developing innovative business management tools like AgriShield® to help to make farm management a little easier."
 

The development of AgriShield® was funded in part through Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada’s AgriRisk Initiatives Program.
