Programs and Business Risk Management Division is responsible for the delivery of flexible risk management and financial development programs to enhance the economic viability and sustainability of agri-business, as well as the development of the department's business plan.

Staff are located in Truro.

NOTICE

Our office had to be temporarily moved out of the building at 60 Research Drive. We are currently at the Dalhousie Agricultural campus in the Harlow Building (176 College Rd.) until further notice.


The Growing Forward program has now ended. The new five-year (2013-2018) Growing Forward 2 suite of programs will be made available once negotiations between the federal and provincial and territorial governments are finalized. Continue to check this website for updates.

Please DO NOT fill out last years' program application forms. They may used as a guide to help prepare information for the upcoming release of the new program information.
