The  explosive growth and urbanization of the Chinese economy has created  opportunities in Canada in the field of agriculture and food production.  China not only offers a huge potential market for Canadian agri-foods,  but also has opportunities in the areas of agriculture education,  research, development, production and agriculturally related life  science events. Cultural, language and regulatory differences have been  major limitations in this exchange and co-operation.

The  Canada–China Agriculture and Food Development Exchange Centre Inc.  (CCAgr) was founded upon these principles in 2008. CCAGR professionals  has built many contacts in the Canadian and Chinese agricultural  industries through more than 30 years of work experience in both  countries

 The CCAgr has the support of many Canadian and Chinese agriculture  professionals, university professors, senior government officers, and  entrepreneurs. The CCAgr utilizes culture, language and technical  skills, in combination with Canadian industry knowledge by Canadian  professionals, to bridge this gap. The time is ripe for more  agriculturally based co-operation and exchange opportunities between  Canada and China, as China’s economy is expanding and Canada is looking  for new markets.  The CCAgr is acting as a bridge between Canada and  China in the flower, organic vegetable, greenhouse horticulture, winery,  meat industries, which are fast growing agricultural sectors in China.
