Alberta producers encouraged to participate in on-farm water stewardship strategy

In an effort to enhance water stewardship and management practices, producers across Alberta are encouraged to share their insights through the On-Farm Water Stewardship Alberta Producer Survey. The survey aims to gather valuable feedback from the agricultural community to shape future educational resources and support mechanisms within the Alberta Environmental Farm Plan (EFP).

The collective responses are instrumental in understanding the diverse perspectives of producers, and will play a crucial role in informing the EFP’s decision related to water stewardship initiatives.

Producers’ participation is a testament to the community’s commitment to sustainable water management practices that benefit not only individual farms, but also the broader ecosystem. The survey presents a unique opportunity for producers to voice their experiences and influence the direction of water stewardship education and support in Alberta. By participating, producers can ensure that their on-the-ground knowledge and challenges are reflected in the EFP’s strategic planning and resource allocation.

You can participate in the survey and be entered to win a prize pack from Alberta EFP, by clicking here.
