Local farmers and those working in the agriculture sector will soon find a survey in their mailboxes. Grand Erie Training and Adjustment Board Researcher Dr. Clara Siisii says the surveys will focus on the drastic changes taking place in the industry. Siisii says the board is aware of an increase in production and feed costs, but says they are looking for growth opportunities in the business. Haldimand County will be the first to receive the survey followed by Brant, Norfolk, Oxford, Elgin and Middlesex. Siisii adds it's important for farmers to fill out the survey, saying she knows the results will help them in the end.
