What are Agri-Business Properties in Alberta?

An agri-business property is a commercial operation where the land and infrastructure are integrated to generate agricultural income. Unlike a typical hobby farm, these properties are focused on business. This can include a wide range of operations, such as commercial greenhouses, large-scale cattle feedlots, grain storage and handling facilities, seed cleaning plants, or established market gardens and u-pick farms. These properties are ideal for serious investors or experienced operators looking for a turnkey or expandable agricultural business in Alberta.
