ENVIRONMENTAL FARM PLAN PROGRAM
Plan for peace of mind
Farmers who have an Environmental Farm Plan are serious about learning how to reduce agriculture’s impact on the environment. Many Environmental Farm Plan participants enjoy increased efficiency, profitability and new customers as a result of increased environmental sustainability. What opportunities exist on your farm?
The Beneficial Management Practices (BMP) program windows will re-open spring 2021. For more information on the program including application windows, project category lists and project applications please visit the program resources page.

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO:

Step 1
Call 1-866-522-3447 to book a no-charge, confidential, on-farm appointment with one of our friendly Environmental Farm Plan Advisors. You could be eligible to receive an Environmental Farm Plan sign after this first visit! Many farmers are surprised by how sustainable they already are.

Step 2
Your Planning Advisor will identify any environmental risks on your farm within your Environmental Farm Planning workbook. This workbook is confidential and yours to keep. Choose to voluntarily address these risks to receive an Environmental Farm Plan Sign.

Step 3
Funding is available to help you reduce the environmental risks identified within your EFP workbook. Projects that can be funded through the Beneficial Management Practices (BMP) program include waste management, air quality control, emissions control, soil and riparian integrity, water quality and on-farm materials storage.

Step 4
Display your new Environmental Farm Plan sign to proudly show your farm's environmental sustainability and to help us spread the good word about this great program! Don't forget to contact your planning advisor to renew your farm plan every 5-years.
