Alberta Innovates | Agriculture & Environment Program
The Agriculture & Environment (AE) business unit actively assists researchers, innovators, entrepreneurs, and industry clients to accelerate technology development and deployment, helping companies expand their businesses and competitiveness. Additionally, we support applied research and knowledge translation at post-secondary institutions and other organizations with sightlines to advance environmental sustainability through application of knowledge to support improved policy and best practice. Our collaborative initiatives are designed to foster innovation and promote sustainable practices across various sectors including agriculture, forestry, energy, provincial and municipal governments, and others, with application from forests and grasslands, industrial sites, public and private lands, and large urban centres to rural, remote and Indigenous communities. We provide the Government of Alberta (GOA) with scientific and technical expertise on natural resource management, agriculture, economic diversification, emissions reduction, and environmental policy issues. The AE business unit has three funding programs: Agriculture & Food Innovation; Bioindustrial & Circular Innovation; and Environmental Innovation. Each funding program has priority focus areas for investment, and all three programs are open for funding applications through this continuous intake application process.
