Lethbridge College President and CEO Dr. Paula Burns chats with the Hon. Devin Dreeshen, Alberta’s Minister of Agriculture and Forestry, following the announcement on Oct. 15 of a new partnership that will increase the college’s research capacity while benefiting all Albertans in the agriculture industry. As part of the agreement, the college will start managing the Alberta Irrigation Technology Centre and the Brooks Greenhouse.

“We thank the Government of Alberta for its commitment to applied agriculture research in southern Alberta and its confidence in Lethbridge College’s ability to lead these operations,” said Dr. Burns. “This agreement will allow our Centre for Applied Research, Innovation and Entrepreneurship to build on its strengths and expand its work and relationships with the local agriculture industry, creating new and innovative solutions that drive the industry forward and contribute to Alberta’s economic growth.”
