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.

Ontario’s flower sector is blooming ??

With more than $1 billion in farmgate sales and over $650 million in annual exports—much of it centred in the Niagara region—Ontario growers are a major force in Canada’s floriculture industry. In fact, the province produces roughly 50% of all flowers grown in the country, serving a market of over 100 million consumers within a one-day drive.

It’s a powerful example of how strategic location, cross-border access, and strong production capacity come together to support both local agriculture and global markets ??

?? Watch as Andrew Morse, Executive Director of Flowers Canada, shares insights and the full story behind Ontario’s tulip industry and its thriving flower sector.
