The Canadian vision for the AGGP is to develop and transfer knowledge to help Canadian farmers
mitigate GHGs. Focus will be put on both science and knowledge creation and on implementing
knowledge and technology transfer. The AGGP will also support the development of new BMPs and new
technologies to mitigate GHGs. The objective of the AGGP is to enhance the understanding and accessibility of agricultural technologies, BMPs and processes that can be adopted by farmers to mitigate GHGs in Canada. The maximum level of total federal government funding for a project under this Program will not
generally exceed 85% of total project costs. Both cash and `in-kind? contributions from proponents and other project partners will be recognized as contributions to the project under the Program. In-kind contributions are not eligible for reimbursement. |
