In this week's episode, Tracy speaks to Dr. Briana Hagen about "Mental Health In Farming."
How are farmers doing?
Mental health in agriculture is one of our most critical conversations. In today's episode, we are excited to interview Briana, who has been there since the start of the conversation.
In this conversation, Tracy and Briana speak about:

- How this study has impacted mental health awareness and the agriculture industry.
- Skipping forward, the 2021 National Survey Of Farmer Mental Health was launched, and Briana shares some of the key differences between the surveys.
- Brian shares more about the Canadian Centre for Agricultural Wellbeing and how it was launched to address the national infrastructure gap in providing mental health research and evidence-based programming to Canadian agriculture.
- If farmers need help, what should they do, and where can they go for resources? Briana shares more about why she is so passionate about mental health in agriculture and her hope behind bringing this body of work to the industry.
