ABP looking for Peace Country ranchers for a living labs research project

Alberta Beef Producers (ABP) is looking for ranchers from the Peace Country to take part in its living labs research project.

Living labs include producer expertise and ABP wants to look at best practices for climate resiliency.

Lead in beef production and extension Karin Schmid said there are several ways ranchers can help.

“This would be helpful for us if they’re interested in potentially obtaining data on the impacts of a practice change, validating how certain practices might improve productivity and/or profitability or environmental benefits, maybe even explore the integration of crop and livestock production systems,” Schmid said.

Video: What Successful AI Implementation Looks Like in the Protein Industry | Ben Allen, CEO of BinSentry

In this conversation, Ben Allen, CEO of BinSentry, explores what separates successful AI implementation from early experimentation across the protein industry. As producers begin integrating artificial intelligence into their operations, the most effective implementations share common themes: strong data foundations, practical use cases, and a focus on solving real operational challenges. Ben discusses why data quality and integration are essential for AI to deliver meaningful results, and why technology alone is not enough. Successful adoption also depends heavily on people, training, and company culture, ensuring teams understand how to use new tools and trust the insights they provide. Looking ahead, the conversation highlights the steps protein producers can take today—from improving data infrastructure to embracing digital tools—to position their operations for long-term success in an increasingly AI-driven industry.
