Applications are now open for SCAP

Farmers and Ranchers across the country now have full access to the new five year Sustainable Canadian Agricultural Partnership.

The agreement includes $1 billion in federal programs and activities, and $2.5 billion in cost-shared programs and activities funded by federal, provincial and territorial governments, an increase of 25 percent from the old CAP 
program.

Producers should check their provincial agriculture websites to get information on regional specific programs that fall under the AgriAssurance, AgriCompetitiveness, AgriDiversity, AgriInnovate, AgriMarketing and AgriScience
program categories.

The new Sustainable CAP also includes a new $250 million Resilient Agricultural Landscape Program to support ecological goods and services offered by the agricultural sector.
