The CSAP grant seeks to support farmers in adapting to changing climate conditions through practices that improve soil health, ensure the efficient use of water, prevent impacts on water quality, reduce energy use and reduce the use of fossil fuels, while also encouraging the use of innovative technologies that improve resource efficiency. It aims to strengthen local food systems, improve farm productivity, and ensure long-term sustainability, all while reducing the environmental footprint of agriculture.
