Applications for the Resilient Agricultural Landscape Program are open from February 3 until March 15, 2025.

The Resilient Agricultural Landscape Program aims to help farmers and producers adopt beneficial land use and management practices that will increase the environmental resiliency of farms. Initiatives include maintaining and providing healthy soil and water resources, enhancing wildlife habitat and biodiversity, and adapting to the impacts of climate change.

Applications and a program guide for 2025-26 are available on the department’s website. In 2023-24, nearly $709,000 was provided to support 17 projects through the program.

Funding for the program is provided through the Sustainable Canadian Agricultural Partnership, a five-year, $3.5 billion agreement between the Federal, Provincial and Territorial governments to strengthen the competitiveness, innovation and resiliency of Canada’s agriculture, agri‐food, and agri‐based products sector. This includes $1 billion in federal programs and activities, and $2.5 billion that is cost-shared, funded 60 per cent by the federal government and 40 per cent by provincial/territorial governments, for programs that are designed and delivered by provinces and territories.
