The Lethbridge Research Centre (LRC) is one of the largest within Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada's national network of 19 research centres. Located in southern Alberta, the Centre's research is focused in the areas of environmental health, bioproducts and bioprocesses, food safety and nutrition, and sustainable production systems. The Centre carries on significant research in new and improved technologies for beef cattle production and beef quality. The LRC is also developing sustainable and profitable crop productionsystems for dry and irrigated land, and rangeland in the southern Canadian prairies.

In addition to its principal location, the Centre operates three substations; one at Onefour, where studies on livestock and range management are conducted, one at Stavely to study the management of foothills rangeland and one at Vauxhall for irrigated crop production and drainage studies. All three substations are located within the province of Alberta.
