Locate & Invest » Agriculture and Rural Development
Agriculture is an important contributor to the regional economy with an economic impact that exceeds $400B annually. Grains and oilseeds, beef and dairy cattle and emerging new products contribute to the success of agricultural based businesses in Peterborough County. Local initiatives like Kawartha Choice FarmFresh promote local producers to markets through a variety of programs. The GPA EDC works with our rural communities and businesses to improve quality of life, increase the economic base and to take advantage of new opportunities offered through both public and private sources.
