Producer Research and Evaluation Program | Results Driven Agriculture Research (RDAR)

none

Value

Up to $20,000 per project. The maximum total funding available for the Program is $1M in 2024.

Description

The PREP program will provide up to $20,000 per project to complete on-farm research that supports the evaluation of whether a production practice change is feasible on-farm. The program will enable producers to gain sufficient data to make informed decisions and understand how to further adapt a production practice.

In most cases, producers are expected to be working with third-party service providers to support the project trial, delivery, and analysis. Proposals are required to contain a sound project design and testing approach that will support the evaluation of whether a production practice has a positive return on investment and is a favourable change for the farm.

Eligible Applicants

Funding will be available to eligible and qualified applicants from, or under contract with, organizations that directly and/or indirectly participate in the service and development of the Alberta livestock or crop industry, provided that such organizations are in good standing and not in default under any other agreements or programs with RDAR. Eligible applicants for the PREP program are primary producers that meet the following criteria:

  • Operating in Alberta;
  • Responsible for input costs for a crop or livestock operation that produces at least $25,000 in annual farm cash receipts; and
  • Responsible for the day-to-day management and work on the farm; but does not include a landlord whose only interest in the crop or livestock operation is ownership of the land.

Eligible Expenses

  • Costs associated with third-party service providers, agronomists, veterinarians, professional agrologists, certified crop advisors, and technical consultants; and
  • Cost of materials, supplies, and equipment rentals directly required for the project (maximum of $10,000 per project).
