Abstract
The Canadian Agricultural industry is on the brink of a major transformation. Canadian farmers on average, are aging out, and very few have a succession plan in place. Young people are abandoning their careers in the sector in favour of job security in urban centers. Farmers in general, experience a number of challenges associated with owning and operating a farm. However, structural barriers further complicate the ways in which ‘Equity-deserving’ farmers experience and navigate these challenges. There has been limited formal study interrogating how systemic marginalization has impacted the ability for 2SLGBTQ+, women, young and racialized farmers to participate and thrive in the agricultural industry. This thesis focused on equity-deserving farmers living and working in rural and peri-urban regions in Ontario, Canada. The data gathered from qualitative interviews and a demographic survey reveals four major areas of interest: (1) Training and Education Opportunities, (2) Land Access, (3) Identity, and (4) Strength in Community. This thesis offers policy suggestions and highlights the need for collaboration in order to effectively address these ongoing challenges.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
