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.

Optimizing computer vision approaches for field pea imaging
1001473
Implementation of digital agriculture through high throughput-imaging is key to improving plant phenotyping for crop improvement. Image analyses utilizing machine learning (ML) approaches have the potential to dramatically improve crop phenotyping. The intent of the project is to capture above-ground image datasets of peas in an agricultural field, establish an ML pipeline to identify plants and quantify biomass, and begin to associate field traits such as yield and protein with beneficial root traits. For roots, an automated ML pipeline will be established to characterize rhizobium nodules and root system architecture in controlled environments. The foundational datasets generated will enable field to lab comparisons and importantly facilitate the development of advanced tools deployable for improving pea production in the Canadian Prairies
