Funding for new farming tools and practices

The National Landcare Program Smart Farming Partnerships Grant provides funding for farmers and organisations to help them implement new and innovative tools and sustainable agriculture practices.

Overview

Smart Farming Partnerships supports four to five-year projects to develop, trial and implement new and innovative tools and farm practices. As well as increasing on-farm profitability and productivity, projects should promote the uptake of sustainable agriculture practices across agricultural, fishing, aquaculture, and farm forestry industries.
