August 9, 2006:
A new edition of the Environmental Farm Plan (EFP) workbook has been launched and will be in use in EFP workshops in Alberta later summer and early fall 2006 but producers who have completed a plan or are in the process of developing one are fine using the first edition.
"Because the two editions are so technically similar, there is no requirement for past participants to complete the new workbook. And when they return to workshop two to renew their plan, they can still use the original workbook. But if they wish to, they can return to workshop one to get the new edition for completion," says Therese Tompkins, program director for the EFP program. "At some point in the future, the first edition will be declared obsolete but that is not going to be any time soon."
