Building a Zero-Plastic-Waste Strategy for Agriculture

Ag plastics are important tools that help farmers store feed for their livestock, bring crop inputs to their farm, and control moisture.

This three-year, government funded project will increase farmer access to recycling programs and explore ways to deliver long-term, permanent programs. These programs will help Canadian farmers continue to improve the sustainability of their operations.

This project is funded in part by the Government of Canada through Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada’s Canadian Agricultural Strategic Priorities Program (CASPP), a $50.3 million, five-year investment to help the agricultural sector adapt and remain competitive.
