All the persons qualified to practise the profession of agrologist in Québec shall be a professional order called the Ordre professionnel des agronomes du Québec or the Ordre des agronomes du Québec. Subject to this Act, the Order and its members shall be governed by the Professional Code (chapter C‐26). The Act then establishes that the Board shall be governed by board of directors, and where an executive committee is constituted under section 96 of the Professional Code the president and vice-president of the Order shall be members of the committee by virtue of office. The Order shall be divided into sections the territorial limits and the names of which are determined by regulation of the board of directors. Division V clarifies the practice of a professional agrologist; 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 constitutes the practice of the profession of agrologist.
