On-Farm Efficiency Program

The Sustainable Canadian Agricultural Partnership (SCAP) has launched a new On-Farm Efficiency Program for producers. This program combines the key funding opportunities previously seen under the Farm Technology Program and Efficient Grain Handling Program with the additional inclusion of Energy Efficiency.

The On-Farm Efficiency Program offers a maximum of $150,000 over four streams of funding:

  • Smart Farm Technology: maximum of $50,000
  • Energy Efficiency: maximum of $50,000
  • Farm Security: maximum of $2,000
  • Efficient Grain Handling: $100,000

Video: Turning Data into Better Decisions: BioCV's Intelligent Monitoring System for Modern Pork Producers

In this exclusive interview, Jens Kjaer, CEO of BioCV Inc., discusses the North American launch of the BioCV Intelligent Sow Monitoring System and how advanced sensor technology and machine learning are changing the way producers manage sow herds. Using smart ear tags that continuously monitor temperature, behavior, and movement, the system provides real-time alerts for heat detection, farrowing, fever, lameness, and other critical health events—often before they become visible to barn staff.

Kjaer explains how the technology helps producers improve breeding efficiency, reduce non-productive days, identify health challenges earlier, and better support sows during farrowing. He also shares how BioCV's predictive analytics can help operations optimize labor, improve piglet survival, reduce sow losses, and enhance overall productivity in today's increasingly data-driven swine industry.

Learn how this innovative technology is giving producers actionable insights on every sow, every day, helping teams move from reactive management to proactive decision-making while improving both animal welfare and profitability. www.biocv.info/lisa-sow
