Farming is huge, so If you have a viable new business to start or are able to buy into an existing farm operation, the land is rich and supports a variety of agricultural and animal farming.

The tourism industry is strong in this province, mainly because it is so beautiful, and people come from around the world to take in such destinations as Banff, Canmore, Drumheller, Jasper, Sylvan Lake, and Lake Louise. Forestry is still a viable industry as well while the agriculture industry remains strong. The province produces nearly one-half of all Canadian beef and is one of the top producers of plains buffalo (bison) for the consumer market. Sheep for wool and mutton are also raised. Wheat and canola remain as primary farm crops.
