T
he Farm Stewardship Program (FSP) provides Saskatchewan producers funding to implement beneficial management practices (BMPs) in three priority areas – water, climate change and biodiversity.
The FSP focuses on four outcomes:
- Demonstrated improvements on water quality;
- Demonstrated reductions in greenhouse gas emissions;
- Enhanced resilience of the agriculture sector; and
- Biodiversity maintained.
The Farm and Ranch Water Infrastructure Program (FRWIP) is designed to:
- Support the development of secure and sustainable water sources for agricultural use in Saskatchewan;
- Mitigate the impact of drought;
- Improve public safety; and
- Reduce potential groundwater contamination through well decommissioning.
FSP and FRWIP are delivered by various watersheds across Saskatchewan. Funding for the program is provided by the federal and provincial governments’ Canadian Agricultural Partnership.
