THE RURBAN FRINGE

Product Branding and Ag Career Focus Program

Posted on | March 2, 2010 | No Comments

I’ve been catching up at FarmOn.com these last few days … with a post about why branding your beef (or any other ag product) is important to the consumer. 

You can find more information about such product branding at Government of Alberta, Agriculture and Rural Development’s website.

Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada offers a Career Focus Program aimed at recent graduates in agriculture, agri-food, agri-food science, and veterinary medicine as well as potential employers with jobs in these areas.

The program provides matching funding for salaries and benefits up to $20,000 for a maximum of 12 months of work experience. 

Of special note for this year, the program is retroactive to April 1, 2009, which means those qualifying businesses or agencies that have hired these types of graduates could be eligible for funding.

Visit the website for more information or call 1-866-452-5558 toll-free.
