The Alberta ly
Sustainable Agriculture program is a partnership between the County of
Wetaskiwin, Leduc County and the Province of Alberta, to
promote the awareness and adoption of beneficial management practices.
Through activities such as community meetings,
riparian
assessments, winter
watering workshops and a tour of the winter watering sites, water
quality monitoring along Bigstone and Pipestone Creeks, and on
farm water quality testing, we are assisting
landowners in becoming educated stewards of our land and water
resources. Workshops are held dealing with a wide arrange of topics that
include manure and nutrient management, and riparian management
strategies. The ASB News & Views is a newsletter that is prepared
and distributed to producers throughout the counties to showcase
information and upcoming events that are related to sustainable
agriculture.
A farming system cannot be
considered economically viable unless it is ly sustainable,
and it is the goal of the AESA program to encourage proactive change
towards long term sustainability.
