New National Chicken Deal Includes 'Comparative Advantage' Factors

Chicken Farmers of Canada has a new allocation agreement.

Chair Dave Janzen calls it proof that supply management is a modern, evolving system.

The deal will see 55 per cent of future growth allocated based on what CFC is calling provincial comparative advantage factors.

Another term they're using is differential growth.

This deal has taken 6 years to reach.

Alberta withdrew from the existing federal-provincial agreement last year.

It was one of the first to sign the new deal.

Janzen says the new national allocation agreement will see all provinces share in future chicken market growth.
