Saskatchewan’s growers have access to tax-based incentives for financially contributing to research and development.

Your Benefits

Contributions to research and development work allow us to give back to you in a variety of ways, including tax incentives for your contributions to the check-off. Producers that have requested a refund of their check-off are not eligible for tax incentives.

SR&ED Investment Tax Credit

The Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) Program encourages research and development by providing tax-based incentives.

Because we use your check-off contributions to finance research and development work that benefits Saskatchewan wheat, we’re able to distribute these incentives to you!

How It Works

  • The program gives registered wheat producers access to investment tax credits for levy contributions that are spent on qualifying research.
  • Investment tax credits may be claimed by filing Form T2038 (IND) for farm individuals or T2SCH31 for farm corporations.
  • These tax credits are returned by means of cash refunds and/or reductions to taxes payable.
