Legal aspect of agrologist and veterinarians in Quebec

 

Agrologists and veterinarians are bound by the agrologist act and the veterinary surgeon act in addition to their respective codes of ethics. These laws define the agrologist and veterinary acts.

 

Agrologist act:

Every act performed for remuneration, which has as its object the communication or propagation of or experimentation with the principles, laws and processes relating to cultivation of agricultural plants, or to the raising of farm animals, or to the organization or general development of arable soils or the administration of an agricultural undertaking.

 

Veterinary act:
