Governments Invest in Ontario’s Dairy Processing Sector
The Canadian and Ontario governments are committing up to $7.18 million to enhance dairy processing capacity through the Sustainable Canadian Agricultural Partnership. This funding will support 70 projects, generating approximately $22 million in capital investments. The initiative, open to cow, goat, sheep, and water buffalo milk processors, offers up to $200,000 in cost-shared funding per applicant. The funds can be used for equipment, training, and food safety improvements, exemplified by projects like Four All Ice Cream and Max and Lion Production.
