BC blueberry growers approved a $3.31 million budget at their AGM on June 17 in Aldergrove. Harjot Toor, the BC Blueberry Council's finance chair, says the spend in 2025 was $2.55 million, which was set low because of the poor yields in 2024. "We were very scared to spend in 2025. It was a bad year in 2024. Now things are more normal.”

A $2.5-million provincial program is helping Fraser Valley egg and poultry producers defend their flocks against avian influenza. The Novel Tools and Technologies Program supported 29 farms last year with air filtration and UV light systems — and more than 80% would recommend the technology to others. Applications for the current round, supporting approximately 50 farms, are open June 1–30. Fraser Valley, Langley and Surrey farms are eligible.
