Poultry and Egg On-Farm Investment Program

March 31, 2030

Value

PEFIP will provide non-repayable contributions of almost $759 million over 10 years. 

Description

The Poultry and Egg On-Farm Investment Program (PEFIP) aims to help supply-managed poultry and egg producers adapt to market changes resulting from the implementation of the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP).

The program supports on-farm investments in:

  • increasing efficiency or productivity
  • improving on-farm food safety and biosecurity
  • improving environmental sustainability
  • responding to consumer preferences (improving animal welfare, adopting alternative housing systems, transitioning to organic production, etc.)

    • Atlantic Canada Hatching Egg Producers
    • Poultry and/or egg producers under new entrants programs with loaned quota and/or whole-farm leases with loaned quota at the time of the calculation

Eligible Expenses

  • Costs of Capital Assets
  • Contracted Services
  • Salaries and benefits
  • Non-recurring costs that modernize operations, increase efficiency, biosecurity, environmental sustainability, and/or meet changing consumer demands.

Eligible project costs will normally be shared between AAFC and the applicant as follows:

  • a maximum of 70% AAFC and a minimum of 30% applicant

Deadline Date
