Canadian Agricultural Partnership
The Canadian Agricultural Partnership is a five-year, $3 billion investment by federal-provincial and territorial governments to strengthen the agriculture, agri-food and agri-based products sector.
Under the Partnership, producers continue to have access to a robust suite of Business Risk Management (BRM) programs to assist in managing significant risks that threaten the viability of their farm and are beyond their capacity to manage.
AgriInvest Program Changes
AgriInvest provides cash flow to help producers manage income declines. To support the changes to AgriStability and ensure more equitable support for all producers, a redistribution of government support from AgriInvest to AgriStability was necessary. As a result, the following changes to AgriInvest will take effect as of the 2018 program year:
- The maximum Allowable Net Sales will decrease from $1.5 million to $1 million and the maximum matching government contributions will decrease from $15,000 to $10,000.
- The minimum payment will be adjusted from $75 to $250 in recognition that small payments are unlikely to have a meaningful impact on producers’ risk management.
