Regional Governance

Alberta Grains Regional Governance

The Alberta Grains board of directors is made up of farmers from across the six growing regions in Alberta.

Our directors govern, make decisions on behalf of and implement the Alberta Grains strategic direction. Each region may elect up to two eligible producers as directors. Directors remain in office for three years following the annual region meeting at which they were elected.

Terms of Office

The standard term of office for directors and delegates is three years. Directors and delegates may serve a maximum of two, three-year terms. Check out our Elections page to learn more about electing directors and delegates.
