The Agricultural Fieldman provides landowners with information regarding best management practices for soil and water conservation. The ASB cooperates with local groups, other municipalities, and government agencies to promote soil and water conservation practices with local or regional workshops and newsletters. A solar watering system is available to both Ponoka and Lacombe County residents to demonstrate stock watering away from riparian areas. We currently operate three tankloader facilities at Rimbey, Crestomere, and Mecca Glen. The sites provide water free of charge to county farmers which can be used for spraying crops, and livestock watering. Water is not tested and therefore non-potable. The storage tanks also provide water for emergency fire fighting
