Our Mission:
KBFA provides producers with free, technical production support and information from a network of specialized resources, including independent consultants and academics.
Our Vision:
KBFA supports producers to improve agricultural production and efficiency by helping find solutions to farm-specific production issues, coordinating educational events and connecting producers to information.
KBFA general advisors help agricultural producers access free agricultural information, resources, and expertise to support them with technical production. KFBA services are free to agricultural producers in the KBFA region working towards commercial viability. The KBFA region is collectively the regional districts of Kootenay Boundary, Central Kootenay, and East Kootenay, and the Columbia Basin Trust region.
Specialist advisors, including government and university researchers, private sector consultants, and experienced producers, provide information to producers on specific issues.
