Improving Water-Use Efficiency for Managing During Dry Conditions
Although the Okanagan is considered to have one of the most favourable climates for agricultural production in the province, in many cases moisture deficiency during
Linking Farmland to Floodplains
Warming winter and spring temperatures are changing precipitation patterns and causing earlier and more rapid snowmelt. These factors, combined with projected increases in spring precipitation,
Pollinator Assessment and Crop/Climate Analysis for Bulkley-Nechako and Fraser-Fort George
Climate change in the Bulkley-Nechako and Fraser-Fort George Regional Districts (BNFFG) is expected to result in altered temperature and precipitation regimes, and growing seasons that
Research Template: Use Mulches to Reduce Water Use with On-Farm Research

Research Template: Improve Water Infiltration, Soil Health With On-Farm Research
This fillable template introduces the value of adequate water infiltration for crop production and walks through the steps to carry out a research trial. The
Enabling Climate Change Adaptation Through On-Farm Research Templates
This two-year project developed three research templates for getting started with on-farm research to test new practices. Each template also includes a case study. Learn
IPM Guides for Small-Scale Farmers
Through this project a series of 12 IPM guides were developed for small-scale vegetable and berry farmers in the Fraser Valley and Lillooet-Pemberton areas. These
IPM Guides: Two-Spotted Spider Mites in Berry Crops
