The Provincial Government helps to beef up the agriculture industry
The Alberta Beef Industry is world renowned for having high-quality beef,
Beef was Alberta's largest agri-food export last year, and at $3.9 billion, it makes up 22 per cent of the province's total agri-food exports.
Because of the importance of the beef industry, both the Canadian and Alberta governments are going to provide the Alberta Beed Producers (ABP) with almost $1.9 million to go towards it's on-farm food safety program Verified Beef Production Plus (VBP+).
This funding will come through the Sustainable Canadian Agricultural Partnership.
