Located in
Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada the AgTech Centre has provided timely, unbiased
information to the agriculture industry.
Originally established as the
Alberta Farm Machinery Research Centre in 1988 the AgTech Centre now
puts great emphasis towards research and the application of technologies
to complex agri-food systems and problems.
The AgTech team, consisting
of engineers and technologists, produces independent information based
on research, development, and evaluation of agricultural machinery and
technology.
They outline the applications and limitations of the machinery
and equipment using state-of-the-art facilities. Engineers look for
ways to improve the equipment through testing both in the lab and in
the field.
The results are available to anyone wanting to find the results
of independent testing done on certain agricultural technologies.
