Welcome
- Due to the unfavorable weather conditions, many farmers were not able to harvest their crops and they will remain in the fields until they can be harvested in the spring.
- Driving snowmobiles and other recreational vehicles on the crops will damage them, resulting in less crops being viable in the spring.
- If you need to get around a field, choose to drive around the edges than through the middle of the field.

Agriculture in the Peace River Regional District
The PRRD is taking the situation facing the Agriculture Industry extremely seriously and is taking action to advocate for agriculture.
At the November 14th Board Meeting, the Peace River Regional District Board resolved to take action in support the local agriculture industry by sending a letter to provincial and federal representatives, including Premier John Horgan, Minister of Agriculture, Lana Popham, MLA Dan Davies, MLA Mike Bernier, and MP Bob Zimmer. The Peace River Regional District would like to clarify that while the PRRD Board is in full support of the Agriculture industry and local farmers, there has not been a declaration of an Agricultural Emergency at this time.
