RALP opened for Year 3 Applications

As of February 3, the Resilient Agricultural Landscape Program (RALP) has opened for Year 3 applications. The RALP objective is to increase the environmental resiliency of agricultural landscapes by accelerating adoption of beneficial management practices (BMPs) that maximize provision of ecological goods and services (EG&S), particularly increased carbon sequestration and enhanced climate resilience.
 
Up to 100% of eligible expenses may be covered for approved grants to support producers in their ability to implement and maintain projects over a three-year term. Funding of up to $150,000 for Primary Producers, and up to $300,000 for Indigenous applicants or groups such as Grazing Reserve Associations and Community Pastures is available for eligible BMP projects. Funding is retroactive to February 1, 2025.
 
Please take time to review all updated Year 3 program documents to become familiar with recent changes and ensure your application is completed accurately.
