Le Agriculture and Food Council (AFC) a vu le jour en 1993 et a reçu pour mandat de réaliser la vision et les objectifs de Creating Tomorrow. Constitué de représentants de toutes les composantes de la chaîne de valeur du secteur agroalimentaire, le Conseil joue le rôle de catalyseur pour le secteur agroalimentaire albertain : élargir la part que détient l'Alberta sur les marchés mondiaux des produits alimentaires et agricoles et de l'agrinégoce; améliorer la gestion des ressources et de l'environnement; élargir les horizons, les compétences et la qualité de vie des membres du secteur. Le AFC applique trois programmes principaux dans la poursuite de ses objectifs : le Fonds d'adaptation rurale et agricole du Canada (FCADR), la Value Chain Strategic Initiative et Growing Alberta, programme de sensibilisation publique. Il tire les fonds nécessaires à son fonctionnement du FCADR (Fonds canadien d'adaptation et de développement rural) d'Agriculture et Agroalimentaire Canada, qui est doté d'un budget de 60 millions de dollars par année. Ce programme au budget de plusieurs millions en est dans sa seconde phase et un bon nombre des investissements importants faits rapportent déjà des dividendes. 2, record 1, French, - Agriculture%20and%20Food%20Council
