Description

The Agroecological Resource Areas of Alberta map was developed to provide a natural resource framework for the description and evaluation of the agricultural industry in Alberta. It should also provide a basis for the rationalization, direction and targeting of research, conservation and extension activities at a regional or provincial scale. Broad areas of generally similar agricultural potential and management were separated with an emphasis on natural (ecological) characteristics. The boundaries were based on ecoclimatic zonations, physiographic subdivisions and general soil characteristics.
