Program Details
 
 
  The Alberta Riparian Habitat Management Society, known as "Cows and Fish", is striving to foster a better understanding on how improvements in grazing management on riparian areas can enhance landscape health and productivity, for the benefit of cattle producers and others who use and value riparian areas. Riparian areas are the lands adjacent to streams, river, lakes and wetlands, where the vegetation and soils are strongly influenced by the presence of water.

The Cows and Fish program is available to work with producers and communities on riparian health and management , assist in building community-based and producer-driven groups to address local riparian issues, provide technical assistance on riparian management and health assessment, and provide better information so producers can make informed decisions.
