Canadian Farmers' Net Income Declined 9.5% In 2022 Due To Higher Costs
The net income of farmers in Canada declined 9.5% to $12.5 billion in 2022 as the cost of expenses outpaced a rise in earnings.
The decrease in income generated by farmers in 2022 followed a 50.8% gain in 2021 and a 79.1% increase in 2020.
Net income represents the difference between a farmer's cash receipts and their operating expenses.
In 2022, total farm cash receipts increased by 14.8% compared with 2021. Farmers across Canada received higher revenue for both crops (up $7.2 billion) and livestock (up $3.6 billion).
However, farmers also faced a 21.2% increase in their total expenses, which pushed their net income lower. Farmers paid more for key agriculture inputs, including fertilizer, animal feed and fuel such as gasoline.
Fertilizer, in particular, is a growing expense for farmers. The price of fertilizer in Canada rose 61.5% to $11.9 billion last year.
The global fertilizer market has been stressed by natural disasters and high natural gas prices, as well as the ongoing war in Ukraine.
Farmers based in Saskatchewan had the highest realized net income in 2022 at $4.5 billion, followed by Alberta at $3.3 billion and Ontario at $2.3 billion.

Last updated: Tue 9 Aug 2022, 2:09 PM
The UAE Ministry of Health and Prevention on Tuesday reported 919 cases of the Covid-19 coronavirus, along with 859 recoveries and no deaths.
Total active cases stand at 18,857.
The new cases were detected through 197,921 additional tests.
The total number of cases in UAE as on August 9 are 1,000,556, while total recoveries stand at 979,362. The death toll now stands at 2,337.
Corniche Hospital and Sheikh Khalifa Medical City (SKMC) in the UAE's capital have resumed normal operations and continue to provide specialised and comprehensive healthcare services to patients, Abu Dhabi Health Services Company (Seha) said.
The announcement coincides with the consistent drops in the number of Covid-19 cases registered in the past few weeks. On August 5, the caseloads dropped below 1,000 for the first time in two months and the decline has been continuing.
Meanwhile, China's Hainan, an island province dependent on tourism, locked down more areas on Monday , Reuters calculations based on state media reports show, as it battles its worst Covid-19 outbreak after seeing very few cases over the past two years.
The island in the South China Sea, which recorded just two local symptomatic Covid cases last year, has reported more than 1,400 domestically transmitted infections this month, including 982 symptomatic ones . While that is small by global standards, it is the province's biggest outbreak since the virus was first reported in the central Chinese city of Wuhan in late 2019.
The spike in cases comes amid a pick up in interest in tourism after China eased curbs aimed at domestic travel, accounting for the shorter incubation period of the Omicron variant that facilitates a shorter quarantine time.
However, the curbs in Hainan, in line with China's 'dynamic Covid-zero' policy that aims to stamp out outbreaks as soon as possible, points to the persistent uncertainty shrouding travel and may further dampen confidence in the tourism and hospitality sectors that are particularly vulnerable to Covid restrictions .

(MENAFN) Former Ukrainian President Pyotr Poroshenko has revealed his plans to contest in the country's next presidential election, contingent upon the resolution of the ongoing conflict with Russia.
Speaking on Al Jazeera television, Poroshenko affirmed his intention to participate in the election once victory in the current conflict is achieved.
The electoral landscape in Ukraine has been shaped by the imposition of martial law in February 2022, leading to the indefinite postponement of scheduled presidential elections.
President Volodymyr Zelensky's announcement last November further extended the delay, effectively prolonging his own mandate and that of his party in the legislature. Amidst this political climate, Poroshenko's declaration of candidacy signals a potential shift in Ukraine's leadership dynamics.
However, Poroshenko's political ambitions extend beyond the domestic sphere. He also indicated his willingness to contest for a seat in the European Parliament should Ukraine succeed in joining the European Union. While the European Union has taken steps towards opening accession talks with Kiev, the timeline for membership negotiations remains uncertain, posing a challenge to Poroshenko's aspirations on the international stage.
Poroshenko's tenure as president, which began in 2014 following the ousting of Viktor Yanukovych, was marked by significant challenges including the deadly conflict in Eastern Ukraine, economic downturn, and allegations of corruption. As he positions himself for a potential return to power, Poroshenko's candidacy is likely to spark debate and scrutiny, reflecting broader questions about Ukraine's political trajectory and relationship with the European Union.

(MENAFN- Daily News Egypt)
Egypt's Minister of International Cooperation and Governor of Egypt at the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) Rania Al-Mashat met with representatives of the Bank's Board of Directors to review the outcomes of their six-day visit to Egypt. The visit included extensive meetings, visits, and consultations with various stakeholders from the national entities, private sector, business community, development partners, and civil society. The bank officials also examined several projects that received financial and technical support from the bank, in both the private and public sectors.
During the visit, the EBRD Board of Directors delegation met with Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly and held meetings with several ministries and government bodies, such as the Ministry of Transport, the Central Bank of Egypt, and the Suez Canal Economic Zone. They also inspected development projects, such as the Abu Qir Metro in Alexandria Governorate, the New Administrative Capital, the El Sewedy Technical Academy, and the Grand Egyptian Museum.
80% of EBRD's Investments Are in Private Sector
At the start of the meeting, Al-Mashat stated:“Since 2012, when Egypt became a country of operations for EBRD, the volume of investments for the government and private sectors increased to more than €12bn in 174 projects, of which more than 80% were directed to the private sector.”
Al-Mashat also said that Egypt's success in signing the Ras El Hekma Development Project in cooperation with the UAE had a positive impact on the Egyptian economy and that the government was moving forward in overcoming the challenges facing the Egyptian economy. The meeting also discussed the joint development policy program, which is being prepared in cooperation with the World Bank within the framework of the structural reforms that the state is implementing to enhance the competitiveness and resilience of the Egyptian economy, support the green transformation, and increase the engagement of the private sector in the Egyptian economy. This is also in line with the negotiations with the International Monetary Fund (IMF), which are progressing positively.
Green Transformation Projects
Al-Mashat highlighted the efforts made by the state to encourage and stimulate local manufacturing, increase exports, and create more job opportunities. She explained that development partners were an essential part of those efforts, especially in the field of sustainable water resources management and green hydrogen. She added that Egypt aimed to become a global leader in manufacturing and exporting green hydrogen as a source of renewable energy.
Visit of Suez Canal Economic Zone
The EBRD delegation visited the Suez Canal Economic Zone to explore the investment opportunities in the region. They toured Egypt's green hydrogen factory, which the bank funded two years ago and which exported the world's first green ammonia shipment last November. They also visited the Egyptian Basic Industries Corporation (EBIC) factory and Sokhna Port, which is undergoing many development works to become the most important port on the Red Sea.
Visit of Alexandria
The EBRD Board of Directors delegation inspected Alexandria Governorate and boarded the Talgo train, which the bank financed. They followed the progress of the projects funded by the bank under the Green Cities Program in the governorate, including the Alexandria/Abu Qir Metro Project. They also discussed future projects in the governorate, which cover climate action, sustainable infrastructure, transportation, water and sanitation, and climate change adaptation. Moreover, the bank delegation examined many other projects.
In this regard, Jose Leandro, the official of the European Union countries, emphasized the importance of Egypt as a strategic country of operations for the EBRD and the European Union in general. He said that the bank was very keen to provide all kinds of support to Egypt to face the challenges it was going through. He noted that the bank delegation's visit to the Suez Canal region demonstrated the development that had been achieved to enhance the investment climate. He also praised the visit to the El Sewedy Academy for Technical Education, which showed inspiring measures to promote technical employment among young men and women and the importance of investing in training. He also commended the small and medium enterprises that were visited in Cairo and Alexandria, which were vital for creating and increasing job opportunities.
He also highlighted the meeting that the Prime Minister had with the bank delegation, explaining that the meeting showed a clear vision for the government to tackle the current challenges and finalize the agreement with the International Monetary Fund. He added that Egypt's reforms could create many opportunities for growth beyond the current stage and that the EBRD could make a difference by supporting these reforms and measures taken by the state.

(MENAFN) A sobering report from the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) has brought attention to a critical global issue, revealing that one in three children worldwide resides in areas facing high or very high water scarcity. The report, titled "The Climate Changed Child," underscores the dual challenge of diminishing water availability and inadequate access to clean drinking water and sanitation services, placing approximately 739 million children at heightened risk.
UNICEF Executive Director Catherine Russell highlighted the dire consequences of climate change on children, emphasizing that their bodies and minds are uniquely vulnerable to factors like polluted air, poor nutrition, and extreme heat. The report sheds light on the profound impact of climate change on children's overall well-being, with water sources drying up and extreme weather events becoming more frequent.
Russell stated, "Children are demanding change, but their needs are far too often relegated to the sidelines." The report not only draws attention to the threat of water scarcity but also outlines the various ways in which children bear the brunt of the broader impacts of the climate crisis. These include increased susceptibility to diseases, exposure to air pollution, and vulnerability to extreme weather events such as floods and droughts.
From conception to adulthood, the health and development of children are significantly influenced by the environment in which they grow up. The report underscores the multifaceted impact on critical functions such as brain development, lung health, and immune system strength. Additionally, children, who generally breathe faster than adults, are more likely to suffer from the adverse effects of air pollution, compounding the challenges they face in the context of climate change.
The findings of the UNICEF report underscore the urgent need for global attention and action to address the specific vulnerabilities of children in the face of climate change. As the world grapples with the impacts of environmental shifts, prioritizing the well-being and future of the younger generation becomes increasingly crucial in building a sustainable and resilient global community.

(MENAFN- Jordan News Agency)
Amman, Dec. 1 (Petra) -- Adviser of Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff for Medical Affairs, Brig. Gen. Adel Wahadneh said on Wednesday the World Health Organization (WHO) has identified the Omicron Covid variant as a disturbing variant, with many mutations that may have an effect on how it behaves, how easily it spreads or the severity of the disease it causes.
Wahadneh added that the transmissibility of the virus hasn't been clear yet (e.g. spreads more easily from one person to the other) compared the other variants, including Delta, noting that the number of people who have tested positive for the virus has increased in South Africa, but epidemiological studies are underway to understand whether this is due to the omicron variant or other factors.
Wahadneh explained that the severity of the disease hasn't been clear yet in terms of whether the infection with it causes a more serious disease compared to the infection with other variables, including delta.
Preliminary data indicate that there are increasing rates of hospitalizations in South Africa, but this may be due to an increase in the overall numbers of people becoming infected, rather than as a result of a specific omicron infection, he added.
Wahadneh pointed out that there is currently no information to suggest that the associated symptoms differ from those of the other variants, as were the primary infections reported among college students - younger individuals who tend to have milder disease - but understanding the severity level of the omicron variant will take several weeks.
All variants of COVID-19, including the worldwide dominant delta variant, can cause severe illness or death, particularly for the most vulnerable, Wahadneh further explained.
'The WHO is working with technical partners to understand the potential impact of this alternative on our current countermeasures, including vaccines, and current vaccines remain effective against severe disease and death, and widely used PCR tests continue to detect infection,' Wahadneh noted.
He stressed that treatments that have been approved are effective in managing patients with severe COVID-19, and other treatments will be evaluated to see if they are still effective given the changes in parts of the virus within the omicron variant, as the WHO encourages countries to contribute to collecting and sharing patient data in hospitals through the WHO Clinical Data Platform in order to quickly describe clinical characteristics and patient outcomes.
Wahadna added that the recommended measures are based on enhancing monitoring and sequencing of cases in countries, and countries must continue to implement effective public health measures to limit the spread of COVID-19 in general.
In addition, it is critically important to urgently address inequalities in access to COVID-19 vaccines to ensure that vulnerable groups everywhere, including health workers and the elderly, receive their first and second doses, as well as equitable access to treatment and diagnosis, Wahadna concluded.

(MENAFN- UkrinForm) Comprehensive support for Ukraine on the part of the United States of Ukraine corresponds to the U.S. national interests and should continue.
This opinion was expressed by the GOP leader in Senate, Mitch McConnell, Voice of America reports.
"We are standing here against China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran,” McConnell said, according to a report posted in Ukrainian.“This already says that you are on the right side. Second, we are not losing any American troops. It's the Ukrainians who are fighting. Regarding our GDP, this is a really small share that we provide for these efforts in Ukraine. If Putin wins, a NATO ally will be next.”
Senator McConnell noted that it is much more reasonable to stop Putin's invasion today, adding that the Ukrainian troops show courage and bravery, inspiring the rest of the world, the countries that elect their leaders and are not ruled by autocrats. Read also: Senate

He added that the transfer of weapons to Ukraine contributes to the development of the U.S. industrial base and creates jobs for Americans. "When we send weapons and ammunition to Ukraine, we replace many of our assets with more modern, advanced equipment. We should restore our industrial base even without the war in Ukraine due to the growing competition from Russia and China," the senator noted.
He believes that Ukraine's resolute resistance, supported by allies, also contributes to peace in the Far East.
“There are some Americans who say it's a long way from the Far East, and that's where our real concerns are. But the Japanese prime minister said that if you want to send a message to President Xi, beat Putin in Ukraine. South Koreans are concerned, Filipinos are concerned, Australians are concerned. So this really has a huge impact on Asia and the future of Taiwan," McConnell concluded.
As reported by Ukrinform, more voices have been heard recently in the Republican Party regarding the termination of large-scale aid to Ukraine in the fight against Russian aggression.

(MENAFN- The Peninsula) AFP
Lilongwe: Malawi's president appealed for $200 million in food aid this weekend, saying millions of citizens faced starvation due to a drought linked to the El Nino weather phenomenon.
President Lazarus Chakwera declared on Saturday evening a state of natural disaster in 23 of the 28 districts of the southern African country, following a government assessment of the damage to farmland caused by El Nino.
"In addition to delayed and erratic rainfall, these districts have faced insufficient rainfall, floods and prolonged dry spells, severely harming crops and food production prospects," Chakwera said in a national address.
"This situation is devastating."
Neighbouring Zambia declared a national disaster in late February after drought devastated its agricultural sector.
Major growing areas in Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe received only 80 percent of average rainfall during the southern hemisphere summer from mid-November to February, according to the United Nations' Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).
President Chakwera said the Malawian government's initial government found that nearly two million farming households had been affected and 44.3 percent of national crop land has suffered damage.
He estimated that around 200 million dollars of maize would be needed for a humanitarian response programme and urged anyone, at home or abroad, in a position to provide resources to support the cause.
"It would have been catastrophic even if this were the first disaster in recent years," Chakwera added.
"Unfortunately, this marks the fourth time in four years that I have declared a state of disaster."
Malawi's Civil Society Agriculture Network (Cisanet) said on Sunday it supported the president's appeal but emphasised the importance of "aligning investments with climate-smart practices" and ensuring there was "transparency in resource allocation".
El Nino is a natural weather phenomenon which is typically associated with increased heat worldwide, as well as drought in some parts of the world and heavy rains elsewhere. It occurs every two to seven years and lasts between nine and 12 months.

Afghans who fought along side Brits get banned from UK resettlement
(MENAFN) A BBC report has alleged that British special forces have actively intervened to reject resettlement applications from elite Afghan troops, despite evidence of their collaboration in operations against the Taliban. The report, featured on the Panorama program, suggests that concerns among United Kingdom special forces about potential involvement in an inquiry into alleged wrongdoing during the Afghanistan war prompted them to effectively veto Afghan relocation applications. This has raised apprehensions about the fate of hundreds of Afghan veterans who now face an uncertain future and potential reprisals from the Taliban.
The United Kingdom Armed Forces minister, James Heappey, recently acknowledged the need for a review of approximately 2,000 applications after conceding that the initial resettlement process was not robust. However, concerns have been raised about a potential conflict of interest as the Ministry of Defence (MoD) review coincides with a public inquiry into alleged misconduct by United Kingdom special forces in Afghanistan.
The BBC report features claims from anonymous sources, including a former British special forces member, highlighting the implications of United Kingdom special forces headquarters having the authority to prevent Afghan special forces colleagues and potential witnesses from resettling safely in the United Kingdom. This development adds complexity to the ongoing scrutiny of the United Kingdom's involvement in Afghanistan and raises questions about the treatment of Afghan allies who collaborated with British forces.

(MENAFN- Khaleej Times) Despite the US dollar falling heavily overnight, prices fell 0.53 per cent on Wednesday By A Staff Reporter
Published: Thu 19 May 2022, 9:39 AM
Last updated: Thu 19 May 2022, 9:41 AM
Gold prices rose on Thursday morning in the UAE, but the precious metal's outlook was dulled by an aggressive Federal Reserve stance on inflation.
Spot gold was trading at $1,814.68 per ounce at 9.10am UAE time.
In the UAE, the 24K gold price rose half a dirham at the opening of the market on Thursday.
The Dubai Gold and Jewellery Group data showed 24K trading at Dh219.75 per gram, up from Dh219.25 at the close of the market on Wednesday. Meanwhile, 22K, 21K and 18K opened at Dh206.5, Dh197.0 and Dh169.0, respectively.
Despite the US dollar falling heavily overnight, and risk sentiment rising generally, gold prices fell 0.53 per cent on Wednesday.
“When gold falls as the US dollar falls heavily, we should all take that as a warning sign, suggesting lower prices are the path of least resistance. As such, I believe gold's downside risks have ratcheted higher,” said Jeffrey Halley, senior market analyst at Oanda.
- Explainer: Why are markets falling?
Support lies at $1,789, followed by $1,780 an ounce. Failure of the latter suggests a deeper correction to $1,700. That move could occur quite quickly if $1,780.00 fails. 'Gold has resistance at $1,836, followed by the 200-Daily Moving Average at $1,836.80, and then $1,850 an ounce,” said Oanda.
