B.C., Canada promises $4M to help farmers adapt to climate change, drought
B.C. farmers will once again be eligible to apply for funding through a joint federal-provincial program that helps producers adapt to climate change.
Previously, there was a lifetime cap on the funding, but a change is allowing previous participants to apply again. Eligible applicants must have a complete environmental farm plan, which helps producers identify environmental strengths and potential risks on their farms and ranches. The funding comes from the province’s CleanBC initiative and the federal government’s Sustainable Canadian Agricultural Partnership, which is a five-year, $3.5 billion investigation from federal, provincial and territorial governments. The program is being delivered by the Investment Agriculture Foundation of B.C.
