| | Most agricultural producers in Alberta value the environment and feel strongly about their role as stewards of the environment. They also understand that, for their farm to remain productive and for Alberta's agricultural industry to be competitive on world markets, they need to safeguard environmental quality.

Implementing BMPs suited to your farm is an important component in building and maintaining an operation that is economically sound as well as socially and environmentally responsible.
