Welcome to AMI – the Agricultural Management Institute. You may know about our work as a funding body. We’re also here to champion farm business management in Ontario by offering ideas, resources, links and business tools. We don’t have all the answers, but we’re here to help you find them.

AMI Board of Directors

A 10-member AMI Board of Directors works together to turn the strategic priorities into action and to review funding applications. The members bring a wealth of experience to the board from their involvement in producer organizations, research groups, the agri-food industry and the financial and business service sector – and, in many cases, skills from their own farm businesses. Our current board includes:

• Dr. Peter Vander Zaag (Chair)
• Gerald Renkema (Vice-chair)
• Ron Bonnett (Treasurer)
• Susan Coverdale (Secretary)
• Pierre Glaude
• Kelly Ciceran
• Lorne Small
• Jean Francois Gratton
• Peter Dowling
• Brenda Lammens
• Fred Brandenburg (AAFC Federal Liaison)
• John Molenhuis (OMAFRA Advisor to the Board)
