The mandate of the National Farm Animal Care Council (NFACC) is to provide a national coordinated approach, promoting responsible farm animal care. Through an inclusive approach, involving the entire value chain, NFACC works to build processes that facilitate Canada's agriculture industries in addressing farm animal care.
NFACC works collaboratively in areas of common interest to our members. We believe that by striving for consensus, realistic and lasting improvements to farm animal care can be made.
