What is an
Environmental Farm Plan?
​
An Environmental Farm Plan is a voluntary, confidential and pro-active tool which can help producers to assess the environmental strengths and potential environmental risks in their farm operations. As part of the EFP producers develop their own action plans to address those strengths and risks and improve the environment.
​
The EFP Program encourages the adoption of beneficial management practices that enhance soil, water and air quality, as well as biodiversity, all of which contribute to the sustainability of agriculture.
​
The Agriculture Alliance of New Brunswick is delivering the EFP program in New Brunswick and encourages every producer to develop an EFP. The EFP Program is funded under the Canadian Agricultural Partnership, a federal, provincial and territorial agreement on agriculture and agri-food policy.
