APG Seeks Advisors in All Zones to Grow Pulse Industry

Pulse producers who want to grow the province’s pulse industry while developing their own leadership skills are invited to let their names stand for election as an Alberta Pulse Growers (APG) Advisor at their zone meeting this fall.

“I strongly encourage any interested pulse farmers to join the APG team,” APG Chair Shane Strydhorst said. “I started out as an Advisor like most APG Directors, and it has been a very rewarding experience. Becoming an Advisor is a great way to get involved with the organization. Each of our five zones has available positions and it’s a good introduction to APG, working on committees, and making improvements for Alberta pulse farmers.”

A team of Advisors leads extension activities specific to each of APG’s five zones. Directors on APG’s provincial board often serve as Advisors first.
