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.

Macrofarm AI: Revolutionizing Agricultural Profitability Through AI-Driven Holistic Optimization

Agreement Number:

1035640

Duration: from Sep 1, 2025 to Sep 30, 2026
Description:

Despite decades of technological progress in agriculture—from autonomous machinery to AI-powered weed detection—decision-making remains siloed and reactive, focused on isolated, micro-level optimizations. This project introduces an innovative whole-farm decision-support platform that integrates agronomic, economic, and operational variables using advanced optimization techniques, predictive modeling, and intuitive natural language interfaces powered by Large Language Models (LLMs). By evaluating trade-offs across fertilizer use, crop selection, equipment timing, and risk exposure, the platform enables scenario-based macro-optimization—shifting growers from reactive to strategic, data-driven farm management for maximum profitability.
