Farming Land Use Analysis in the Greater Peterborough Area

 

Sustainability is a large concern for a number of communities as fossil fuel reserves are in decline, and water resourcse are becoming scarce. To that end, it is becoming increasingly important for communities to have sustainable solutions to food and energy. This initiative will explore agricultural, energy and other market opportunities and their impact on alternative land uses. Through working with Millen Farms, who is just one of a number of farmers that have expressed interest in the project, the study will be undertaken to look at feasibility of various alternative land uses.
