Alberta has signed on to the Canadian Agricultural Partnership, which provides $406 million over the next five years.
The $3 billion federal CAP program has set priorities to support markets, trade, innovation, sustainability and clean growth.
“The investment we are announcing will help Alberta farmers and processors meet the growing needs for the quality food we are so capable of providing,” said federal agriculture minister Lawrence MacAuley before signing the agreement in Calgary on March 26.
