The Agricultural Hall of Fame of Quebec (French: Temple de la renommée de l'agriculture du Québec) honours and celebrates those who have made a lasting contribution to the advancement of the field of agriculture in the province of Quebec, Canada.
A non profit association founded in 1991 and located in Saint-Hyacinthe, Quebec, the Agricultural Hall of Fame of Quebec is currently administered by a board of 9 individuals elected during a general assembly that is held on a yearly basis.
The hall of fame exposes portraits of its inductees in a gallery. The gallery used to be located at the ExpoCité complex in Quebec City but was moved to the La Coop building in Saint-Hyacinthe in 2014. Candidates for induction are submitted by member of the association who then form a selection committee. The year's inductees are honored during a banquet after the general assembly where their portraits are unveiled and permanently hung in the gallery.
