If you were a member of Viterra on February 17, 2005 your membership was transferred to the Farm Leadership Council (FLC). 

During the 2004/05 recapitalization of Viterra, Viterra’s Board, senior management and delegates wanted to maintain a non-commercial link with producers in the three Prairie Provinces.  Over the course of calendar year 2005 FLC was borne.  On November 3, 2005 FLC was incorporated with 80 delegate positions, 16 member Board of Directors, 16 membership districts across Alberta, Manitoba and Saskatchewan, and an office in Regina. 

If you:

• Are still directly involved in farming as an individual, partnership or as a farming corporation for commercial purposes;
• Have a desire to enhance your professional development through management skill or  production knowledge;
• Want to assist in leading or helping with your community’s economic outlook;

FLC is an organization that you may want to belong to.  FLC is an organization that can help you with your farm and community pursuits. 

• Contact your FLC Director and delegates in your Marketing Center and about topics, questions and ideas that would be of interest to you and your neighbors.
• Watch for FLC opportunities to obtain production information, management expertise and current or future community ventures in other areas.
• Visit this web site on a regular basis to find what is being planned for your area, current information and FLC resources.
