Intercropping in the Peace: Agriculture Summit

Join the Peace Region Living Lab and North Peace Applied Research Association for a Groundbreaking Intercropping Seminar.

Calling all agriculture enthusiasts, researchers, scientists, producers, and businesses. Uncover the Secrets of Intercropping for Sustainable Agriculture! Get ready for a day filled with insightful discussions, innovative research findings, and hands-on experiences. Together, you'll explore intercropping in the Peace Region by increased yields, management techniques, and soil health improvement.

Registration starts at 8:30 AM, event starts at 9:00 AM
Location: Chateau Nova, 10010-74 Street, Peace River, AB

Topics Include:

• Maximizing Crop Diversity
• Boosting Soil Fertility

Network with Industry Leaders: Connect with fellow agri-enthusiasts, scientists, producers, and businesses. Forge collaborations that will shape the future of agriculture!

There will be a much anticipated producer panel, composed of producers from the Peace Region.
Learn from the experiences of Peace Region Producers in intercropping. Discover innovative strategies for intercropping techniques and maximizing yields straight from the field. They’ll delve into the art of pairing complementary crops and the ecological advantages it brings. Hear about their first hand observations and experiences to to revolutionize your own farming techniques.

Esteemed research scientists and local research associations will be present to share groundbreaking findings. Dive into the latest studies, data-driven strategies, and practical applications on intercropping. This collaborative exchange of knowledge aims to bridge the gap between cutting-edge research and on-the-ground implementation.
