Agriculture
Most of Perth South is prime agricultural land, with agriculture representing one of our most significant economic and community assets. Agricultural practices interact with natural heritage features in a number of ways including: agricultural drainage, nutrient management, land clearing and tile draining for agricultural production and the pasturing of livestock.
Abundant agricultural production in Perth South has resulted in us being referred to as "Ontario's food basket." We are one of the region's main producers of pork, beef, poultry, dairy products, cash crops and organic produce.
