Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

AI for Row Crop Visual Analysis
1029042
AI for Row Crop Visual Analysis addresses the lack of cost-effective, instant, and accurate disease and nutrient stress diagnostics in crops like wheat, canola, barley, soybeans, and corn. The project develops AI-driven visual analysis using CNN models trained on high-quality images. A URL-based app will allow scouts to upload images, experts to assign parameters, and AI to provide real-time analysis. Subscription models and white-label options will enhance adoption. Combined with plant and soil testing, this tool aids agronomists and producers in improving yield, reducing costs, and minimizing environmental impact.
