Resilient Agricultural Landscape Program (RALP) - Water Retention Features

Funding to make Ontario agricultural lands more resilient

RALP funding supports the rejuvenation or the establishment of water retention or shallow groundwater type features on agricultural landscapes in Ontario. The feature must be a minimum of 15 feet deep to qualify for funding. Water retention features result in more resilient agricultural landscapes with an increased ability to help farmers adapt to changing climate conditions and manage fluctuations in water resources, creating more resilient agricultural production and providing many other ecological and water quality benefits.
