Supporting the sector from farm to fork

Agribusiness refers to any land- or water-based business related to farming and farming-related commercial activities—namely the inputs to and the production of food. We deliver professional services that support farm-based businesses, all their associated suppliers (seed, fertilizer, and equipment suppliers), as well as enterprises that form the product supply chain. Our goal? To support the food and agribusiness sectors from “farm to fork.”

Water scarcity, the rise in controlled environment agriculture, and the drive to make supply chains more efficient and robust are some of the biggest drivers in the agribusiness sector. Those, and demands for food production with minimal impact on the environment and climate. Stantec provides holistic solutions so you can meet the modern challenges of this critical market sector.
