New Brunswick Soil & Crop Improvement Association

The soil and crop movement in New Brunswick began in 1977 through the formation of several local associations. The number of locals grew, and a provincial board comprised of two directors from each local was established -- New Brunswick Soil and Crop Improvement Association.

We have eight active locals: Northeast (CCNE), Northshore (Bathurst), Moncton, Chignecto (Sackville), Kings County, Central (Fredericton), Northwest (Edmundston) and Carleton County. Directors at both the local and provincial levels are volunteers. Annual membership fees are set by the provincial board with a portion remitted to the locals.

We have several projects that we work on through the season alongside our fantastic collaborators in addition to the services we provide to individual farmers. This project work helps gather information on the suitability of different crops and cropping practices that have potential in NB and allows us to gather data that can go towards developing models reflective of the farming atmosphere in New Brunswick. The attached list is only a few of the projects that NBSCIA is an active part of. Nous avons plusieurs projets sur lesquels nous travaillons tout au long de la saison avec nos fantastiques collaborateurs en plus des services que nous fournissons aux agriculteurs individuels. Ce travaille de projet nous aide ร  recueillir des renseignements sur la convenance de diffรฉrentes cultures et pratiques agricoles qui ont du potentiel au N.-B. et nous permet de recueillir des donnรฉes qui peuvent servir ร  รฉlaborer des modรจles reflรฉtant lโ€™atmosphรจre agricole au Nouveau-Brunswick. La liste ci-jointe nโ€™est que quelques-uns des projets auxquels lAASCNB participe activement.
