History

The Beaverlodge Experimental Farm began in 1916 when W.D. Albright received a federal government grant to continue his experimental agricultural work of several years. The farm is now known as the Beaverlodge Research Farm. The farm as well as its sub-station in Fort Vermilion form part of the Lacombe Research Centre and form the most northern agricultural research establishment in Canada. The Beaverlodge Research Farm specializes in research and development of technology for improved production systems for crops, honey bees and other pollinating insects adapted to environmental conditions in northwestern Canada. Research at the Fort Vermilion site focuses primarily on the adaptation of technologies for this northern agricultural area.
