Rationale

agricultural_land_institutional_ownership 14% and rising. We cannot undo consolidation that has occurred. We can ensure the next generation of Canadians inherits a food system with farmers on the land. The Land Trust and right-of-first-refusal do not confiscate land — they create a pathway for farmers to compete with institutional capital on access to the land they work.

Details

Epoch: 107

Domain: agriculture

Fiscal cost estimate (LLM): $0.62B CAD

Structural estimate (RIPPLE): -$10.68B CAD net (v3-bfs-signed depth=2, decay=0.5/hop; diverges)

Top RIPPLE cost paths
  • −$10.36B → healthcare_spending (Healthcare Spending) via food_insecurity_rate
  • −$0.32B → federal_budget_balance (Federal Budget Balance) via gdp_prairies

Variable changes

  • new_entrant_farmer_rate: 1.2 → 4.2
  • small_farm_viability_index: 0.38 → 0.58
  • food_system_concentration_index: 0.76 → 0.65
  • rural_community_economic_viability: 0.44 → 0.59
  • agricultural_land_institutional_ownership: 14 → 9

Proposed policy move

new_entrant_farmer_rate: 1.2 → 4.2 (▲ 3)
small_farm_viability_index: 0.38 → 0.58 (▲ 0.2)
