The University of Guelph, Kemptville Campus AgriBusiness eCampus (ABeC) was established with funding provided by the Agricultural Management Institute (AMI). Funding for the AMI is provided in part by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada and Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs under the Agricultural Policy Framework, an agreement among federal, provincial and territorial governments to make Canada’s agricultural sector a world leader in science and innovation. The Agricultural Adaptation Council administers the AMI program on behalf of the Government of Canada and the Province of Ontario. The AMI provides funding for projects to develop business management tools, products, information, resources and training for farm families, farm managers and farm business advisors.
