Before you apply
- Most Alberta producer cost-share programs ask for a current Environmental Farm Plan. Start it first.
- Applications ask for site facts: water source, soil, wetlands, acreage, and the practice you plan. A free land report gives most of them for the boundary you draw.
- Run the grant eligibility quiz to see which other programs may stack with this one.
