Cooperative Extension – Moving to a pilot project

The results of the March 26, 2024 survey are now available

The proposed Agricultural Cooperative Extension model has been reviewed and endorsed in principle by industry and AGI. Once S-CAP funding is in place, the Working Group will carry on over an eighteen-month pilot period as a non-legal entity “guidance team” with host organization support. Members agree a useful step before moving to a formal organization is to evolve behaviors similar to those of a duly elected board.

The group is moving from pure working group to an informal board of directors, recognizing that this self-governed group may make its own adjustments as it adapts to the realities of the process.

The ASB members are:

Walter Preugschas, ASBPC Rep for the NW,

Steve Majek, AAAF member from County of Wetaskiwin
