Provincial AGM to include Elections and Resolutions

The Alberta Pulse Growers Commission (APG) invites farmer-members and other industry stakeholders to attend its provincial annual general meeting on January 27 in Edmonton.

The AGM will take place during CrossRoads: Alberta’s Crop Conference at the DoubleTree by Hilton West Edmonton from 10:30 am to noon. The meeting will include a provincial update for growers, resolutions and director-at-large (bean and non-bean) elections. Resolutions and nomination forms must be submitted to the provincial office by January 15. Director-at-large forms are available on the homepage at albertapulse.com.

“The provincial AGM is a good opportunity for pulse farmers from across Alberta to get together and help shape APG’s future,” said APG Chair Shane Strydhorst, who farms at Neerlandia. “We look forward to sharing APG’s accomplishments and plans for the future with our members and stakeholders as we work towards pulses on every farm, on every plate.”

Producers who have sold pulses in Alberta in the last two years are eligible to stand for election and to vote in person or online. Register in advance at albertapulse.com/event/ . The APG 2024-25 annual report is available at albertapulse.com.

A CrossRoads pass is not required to attend the APG AGM. Alberta Canola and Alberta Grains will also be holding their AGMs during Crossroads. The agenda is available at crossroadscropconference.ca/agenda/
