Project Management
An eight-member Board of Directors governs the BC Grain Producers Association and appoints members and advisors to a research committee, which overseas and guides any research objectives approved by the association. We are currently in search of new directors if you are a grain farmer and interested in being on our board please contact our office. The committee deals with matters of research only and reports to the board as needed throughout the year, which includes informing the board of any relevant ideas for possible future research objectives. This committee give directions to the business and research managers, who are responsible for the everyday concerns of the research objectives.
If you are interested in sitting on the research committee or have an idea of agricultural research you feel would be relevant to the BC Peace, please contact the office in Fort St John.
