Chicken Farmers Of Canada

Chicken Farmers of Canada was established over 30 years ago and has been helping farmers raise the quality chicken that Canadians trust; we’re part of a continuing agriculture success story and proud of it. Specifically, Chicken Farmers of Canada is a national organization, funded completely through farmer levies paid according to the amount of chicken produced. No subsidies. We were established back in 1978 under the Farm Products Agencies Act and operate within a regulatory environment guided by the Federal-Provincial Agreement for Chicken, signed by federal and provincial governments and the provincial chicken boards in July 2001. If you’d like to know more about the evolution of Chicken Farmers of Canada, you can explore it in our history section. As for what we do every day, Chicken Farmers of Canada has two main responsibilities: making sure our 2,700 farmers always produce the right amount of safe, high quality chicken, and representing the interests of chicken farmers and the Canadian chicken industry.
