We are looking for your input! Do you have an innovative idea for a practice that might improve soil health and biodiversity? Would you like to see it tested at the farm level with researchers to help evaluate it?
A Living Lab is designed to test out ideas on a farm scale and brings together producers, scientists and groups in the ag community. If you have an idea for something you’d like to see tried out in the Peace, let us know!
Nine groups across the AB and BC Peace Region have come together and been given an opportunity to have a 'Living Lab' set up and funded by Ag Canada.

The following Best Management Practices (BMPs) have been brought forward as ideas for the Peace Living Lab. Please check off all that interest you and/or add your own: *

Intercropping of grain crops

Livestock Integration into cropping or horticulture systems

Adding perennial forages into an annual crop rotation

Green Seeding (seeding into a green manure or cover crop)

Diversifying crop rotations

Application of biologicals or biostimulants ie. biochar, compost teas

Regenerative Grazing Management

No till/strategic tillage

Silvopasture (the integration of trees, forage and grazing animals)

Landscape restoration- including techniques such as keyline design

Integration of native species- seed & food crop

Other:

Required

Are there any other Best Management Practices that you would like to see tested in the Peace?

Would you be interested in being a part of on-farm research if a Living Lab is established in the Peace?

Yes

Maybe
