Canadian Agricultural Adaptation Program

The Canadian Agricultural Adaptation Program (CAAP) is a five-year (2009-2014), $163 million program with the objective of facilitating the agriculture, agri-food, and agri-based products sector's ability to seize opportunities, to respond to new and emerging issues, and to pathfind and pilot solutions to new and ongoing issues in order to help it adapt and remain competitive.

Launched as a successor to the Advancing Canadian Agriculture and Agri-Food (ACAAF) program, the Canadian Agricultural Adaptation Program (CAAP) will continue to support industry-led initiatives at the national, regional and multi-regional levels.

The Canadian Agricultural Adaptation Program (CAAP) intends on funding projects identified by the sector that align with priorities identified by industry and/or government at the national, regional, and multi-regional levels by focusing on:

• Seizing opportunities
• Responding to new and emerging issues
• Pathfinding and piloting solutions to new and ongoing issues
