Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada Bi-weekly Bulletin
March 7, 2008 Volume 21 Number 3
Japan is the number one importer
of food-related products in the world and is Canada’s second
largest market for agricultural exports, valued at $2.4 billion
for 2006, accounting for about 10% of Canada’s total food
exports. Japanese consumers, like their Canadian counterparts,
are quality and service conscious, and are concerned about food
safety. For 2007-2008, Japan is expected to remain one of
Canada’s top export markets for canola, wheat and barley. This
issue of the Bi-weekly Bulletin examines the situation and
outlook for Japan's agricultural sector and prospects for trade
with Canada.
