Marginal Areas Program

Make every acre count

The Marginal Areas Program increases your profits while farming fewer acres. It provides a financial incentive to seed those hard-to-access/poorly producing areas to perennial forages.

Forages improve profitability, increase pollinator habitat and biodiversity, reduce herbicide-resistant weeds, act as buffer zones to meet product label guidelines and manage clubroot issues. This program is designed to seed down acres that are unprofitable to grow crops while farming less land better.

Receive $150/acre on eligible land and get a Pollinator Power Pak.

Let’s find a solution for those unproductive acres.
