Agricultural Research and Extension Council of Alberta
Advocating for Innovative, Sustainable Agriculture in Alberta
We work together to keep Alberta growing. ARECA is recognized by government, industry and member associations as a vital advocate for agricultural research and extension and a key supporter of Alberta's Applied Research and Forage Associations.
We support a network of applied research and extension associations to connect producers to programs, services, innovations and research to improve the profitability and sustainability of their farm business.
