About Us

Keystone Agricultural Producers (KAP) is a democratically controlled general farm lobby organization which represents and promotes the interests of agriculture and agricultural producers in Manitoba. We are a grassroots organization wholly run and funded by our members, with all policy set by producers throughout Manitoba. In 2009, we will be celebrating 25 years as The Voice of Manitoba Farmers.

Our Mission

To be a democratic and effective policy organization, promoting the social, economic and physical well-being of all Manitoba agricultural producers.

Our Policies

Policy is set by delegates and directors elected from individual and commodity group members. Close to twenty committees, comprised of members and the President (ex officio), research relevant issues and report back to the executive and the General Council. Both the elected executive and management are responsible for implementing policy in the best interests of the members. More detail on this process is included in How We Work: KAP Structure.
