The Slaughter Improvement Program (SIP) aims to strengthen the competitiveness of the red meat industry by providing interest-free, conditionally repayable contributions to support investments that will improve and modernize slaughter operations as well as enhance slaughter capacity in regions that have a demonstrated regional gap that is constraining sector growth.
Objectives
Strengthen the competitiveness of the red meat industry.
Available Funding
The Slaughter Improvement Program is a three-year, $50 million dollar national program delivered by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada that provides slaughter facilities with up to 50% of eligible costs. The availability of program funding will be a factor in determining whether a project is approved and for what amount. The 2010 Budget provided an additional $10 million focused on improvements to beef cattle slaughter facilities. To be eligible for this program, projects must be completed by March 31, 2012.
Additional program delivery information is available on the Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada website. |
