Delegate nominations open for 2026

Alberta Beef Producers’ (ABP) delegate nominations open September 1, with positions available across all five zones.

“Serving as a delegate is one of the best ways to get involved in Alberta’s cattle industry,” says Doug Roxburgh, Chair, ABP. “Delegates represent the needs and ideas of producers in their zone, keep producers informed on the latest from ABP, and participate directly in decision-making that shapes the future of Alberta’s beef industry.”

Becoming a delegate is also a great way for beef producers to expand their personal and professional network, provide leadership to the industry, and stay informed on the issues and opportunities facing Alberta beef producers, he adds.

If you are passionate about Alberta’s cattle industry, 18 years or older, and have paid check-off in the last two years, consider running as a delegate in your zone.

If you know someone who would be an excellent delegate, consider encouraging them and offering to serve as their nominator.
