3 PROGRAM GUIDELINES RESEARCH ACCELERATION 3 OVERVIEW The Nova Scotia Department of Agriculture (NSDA) and Agriculture and Agri Food Canada (AAFC) entered into a five year ( ) bilateral agreement to implement Growing Forward 2, the policy framework for agriculture. Under the Growing Forward 2 bilateral agreement, $37 million in federal and provincial funding will be invested over five years towards strategic initiative programming. Over the five years Growing Forward 2 and Homegrown Success programs will focus on three thematic areas: 1) Innovation 2) Competitiveness and Market Development 3) Adaptability and Industry Capacity With the strength of our partnership with Agriculture and Agri Food Canada and the funding for programming under Growing Forward 2, the Nova Scotia Department of Agriculture is well positioned to provide assistance for the tools needed to improve profitability and competitiveness in Nova Scotia. INNOVATION The innovation theme supports and promotes a market-oriented, consumer-driven agricultural industry by investing in initiatives that will improve the competitiveness and profitability of Nova Scotia s agriculture, agri-food and agri-based product sector. The innovation theme provides support through the following four initiatives: The Research Acceleration initiative, which supports the development and adaption of new and leading agricultural technologies and knowledge to enhance the competitive position of Nova Scotia s agriculture and agri-food industry. Specifically, this initiative supports research positions and applied research projects identified as key priority areas by industry and educational institutions. The Farm Innovation initiative supports the assessment, adoption and implementation of innovative technologies on the farm to improve profitability and competitiveness. Projects should also provide benefits for the industry and/or community. Innovative projects should be new and not currently available or adopted in Nova Scotia. Projects will be classed as either innovative projects or as crop and livestock management projects. The Agri-Products Innovation and Commercialization initiative supports the creation and commercialization of new innovative opportunities to strengthen the competitiveness of Nova Scotia s agriculture, agri-food and agri-based product sectors. The Atlantic Agriculture Research and Innovation Initiative encourages Atlantic Canadian collaboration and provide financial assistance on research and Innovation projects, of mutual benefit, which can lead to improved profitability, competitiveness, and sustainability of the agriculture, agri-food, and agri-product sectors in Atlantic Canada.
