Where Research meets Reality.

Integrating beef, forages and cropping systems to improve the land we rely on and the bottom line.

Alberta AgriSystems Living Lab is focused on creating partnerships between producers and researchers to demonstrate management practices that improve production and profitability, while benefiting the environment.

What is a Living Lab?

No one knows the land, production, and challenges better than producers. A Living Lab is a research initiative where the expertise of producers is recognized and valued. The input and hands-on experience from producers is part of the process from the very beginning.

Ready to take the next step?

Whether you’re a crop producer, rancher, land owner or land renter your real life experience and interest in beneficial management practices is valuable. Lets make better science together.

Ready to join our important work?

We are looking for producers who are interested in wetland restoration, feed additives or 4R Fertilizer Management. Please contact us with your ideas in these areas.

Interested in adopting new management practices?

Our producer and researcher partners have years of experience and we’d like to share their knowledge with you. Learn from our research to improve the land we all rely on and your bottom line.

Members of the Alberta AgriSystems Living Lab team are grateful to live, work, and be in relation with people from across many traditional territories, covering all regions of Alberta. This acknowledgement is to reaffirm our commitment and responsibility to improving relationships and our own understanding of local indigenous people, their cultures and knowledge.
