The Sustainable Canadian Agricultural Partnership has launched a new program called the On-Farm Efficiency Program.
It is designed by combining the past Farm Technology Program and Efficient Grain Handling Program, along with some new opportunities that were selected in response to industry feedback collected in the fall of 2023.
The intent of the On-Farm Efficiency Program is to support producers in achieving environmental benefits by improving the efficient use of agricultural inputs.
The Program funds primary producers to carry out projects that optimize the use of inputs such as fertilizer, pesticides and energy.
The program features 4 main streams, Smart Farm Technology, Energy Efficiency, Farm Security and Efficient Grain Handling.
The program opened for applications on August 14, 2024 and funding is retroactive to April 1, 2023.
