WATER, SOIL, CLIMATE: Research & Resources for BC farmers

February 27 - February 29, 2024

Virtual workshop

Feb. 27-29, 2024
9am-12:30pm each day

Join us online for three mornings where we will explore how to adapt to the climate change challenges facing the agriculture sector. Hear from those working on the ground and learn about the research and programs emerging to support BC farmers. End each morning with a chance for discussion and networking with the ACARN community of growers, agrologists, researchers, policymakers and students.

Over the three days we will dig into:

  • The scope, opportunities, and projects of the new Regional Extension program launched by the BC Ministry of Agriculture & Food
  • Decision-making, research, and resources to adapt to drought and drier conditions
  • Applied research and cover cropping resources to build soil health on BC farms
  • Career and training opportunities in the BC agricultural sector from becoming a professional agrologist to agri-tech and government program delivery

Thanks to funding by the BC Ministry of Agriculture & Food and CleanBC the workshop is available at no cost, registration is required.
