The Environment Chapter of the Agricultural Policy Framework (APF) identifies soil, water, air and biodiversity as the major areas of focus for producers.  Saskatchewan's agri-environmental programming encourages producers to assess their current production activities and to utilize management practices that enhance their environmental stewardship.

Producers who complete an individual Environmental Farm Plan or who participate in an Agri- Environmental Group Plan are eligible to apply for cost-shared funding from the Canada-Saskatchewan Farm Stewardship Program.

The Canada-Saskatchewan Environmental Farm Plan (EFP) Program is creating an opportunity for producers to expand on their long-standing tradition of stewardship.

Offers cost-shared incentives to assist producers who wish to implement beneficial management practices (BMPs) in their farm operations.

The Greencover Canada program is a five-year, $110-million national initiative by the Federal Government to help producers improve grassland management practices, protect water quality, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and enhance biodiversity and wildlife habitat.
