Applied Research

Research with impact

Collaboration is the cornerstone of research at Lakeland.

Thanks to significant grants from the governments of Canada and Alberta, Lakeland’s research team expanded in 2021. This means more research expertise, opportunities to collaborate and a broader range of projects that support producer-led research priorities.

Lakeland’s tactical focus for applied research activity is to advance real-world agricultural productivity and sustainability in key commercial crop and livestock sectors.

We work with industry leaders, government officials, and other post-secondary institutions to ensure that our research efforts are at the forefront of discovery.

Lakeland College has everything it needs to be a trusted research partner: dedicated research facilities, full-time research scientists, instructors with industry experience, and students eager to learn and try their hand at real-life problem solving.
