Options for Alberta Producers During Dry Conditions

Alberta Agriculture and Forestry (AF) has a link in the Spotlight section on the department’s webpage highlighting Options for Alberta Producers During Dry Conditions.
 
“Alberta has been experiencing dry conditions across the province,” says Rick Dehod, farm financial specialist, AF, Edmonton. “Recent rain showers have been spotty with most farms having differing accumulations and different stresses due to the commodity they produce. Regardless, producers are seeking information and insights as to available options, and how to choose a logical course of action, as all of their operations are unique.”
 
“The purpose of the Options for Alberta Producers During Dry Conditions webpage section is to provide a ‘central location’ for producers to visit for information and tools,” says Dehod. “The information contained there covers a variety of business management and production issues around managing a farm during our current dry conditions.”
