Agri-ARM

The Saskatchewan Agri-ARM (Agriculture-Applied Research Management) Program connects eight regional applied research and demonstration sites into a province-wide network. Each location has an affiliated producer group that sets the research priorities for that site.

Agri-ARM sites serve as centres for applied research and demonstration, focusing on increasing value from crops and enhancing production efficiency and environmental stewardship in a region.

Agri-ARM provides the forum for government, producers, researchers and industry associations to partner on provincial and regional projects.

Agri-ARM's objectives

• Increase the adoption of new agricultural production technologies and practices;
• To provide farmers with more tools for environmental and economic decision-making;
• Develop and maintain an adequate level of infrastructure and expertise for regional applied research and demonstration; and
• Increase public awareness of agriculture's role in environmental stewardship and the overall economy.
