Verified Beef Production
If you're an Alberta beef producer looking to ensure the highest on-farm food safety standards possible, you've come to the right place.
On this site you'll find everything about the national industry-led VBP program: from verified Alberta operations to Resources to our Workshop Schedule . VBP is a voluntary program that can be tailored to your farm or feedlot. Verification tells everyone – consumers, your employees and the industry – that you are committed to safe on-farm food practices.
Together, we can protect Alberta’s reputation for producing quality beef.
* Improved use of animal health products
* Readiness, should the market require it
* Heightened awareness of food safety risks
* Basis for training staff and family members
* Proof of responsible actions
* Opportunity for differentiated beef production
