Growing Forward

Innovation and Science Suite

Farm Innovation Program

We are supporting the development and adoption of innovative on-farm technologies that can increase the ability of producers to respond to changing demands and opportunities and improve on-farm profitability. The Farm Innovation Program will provide funding for applied research projects and on-farm demonstration projects that showcase innovative new on-farm technologies. The program is open to non-supply managed farm organizations and to individual farmers in partnership with commodity organizations.

The Farm Innovation Program is delivered by the Agricultural Adaptation Council.


Growing Forward is a commitment by Canada's federal, provincial and territorial governments to support the development of a profitable, innovative agri-food sector that is adept at managing risk and responsive to market demands. Programs in the Innovation and Science Suite encourage the commercialization of agri-food research.
