Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
There are several programs that have been put in place by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. The key one is agricultural environmental farm plans. Basically, agricultural producers look at their own farm situations to ask where the big environmental risks are. What are the negative and potentially positive impacts? Once a producer has completed an environmental farm plan, he or she is eligible for a series of reimbursements, if you will, for improvements on the farm. For example, if a major issue is livestock in the streams and the impact of that on the environment, there's money available under a farm stewardship program, a greencover program, and several other programs, that will provide reimbursement.
