Agricultural Industry Facilitators

Direct, consultative support is offered to farmers through the Department of Fisheries and Land Resources’ Agriculture and Lands Branch by designated ‘Agricultural Industry Facilitators’. These staff members are available to liaise with prospective, new and existing farmers on all aspects of farming including agronomy, business, marketing, and animal husbandry. Additionally, Agriculture Development Officers serve as the first point-of- contact to guide farmers through existing provincial policies and support programs. The Agricultural Industry Facilitators can be found throughout the Province in eight regional offices.
