Hurricane Fiona Agriculture Support Program (Stream I-IV)

The Prince Edward Island Department of Agriculture and Land (PEI DAL) has established the Fiona Agriculture Support Program to provide financial support to the agriculture industry where extraordinary costs have been incurred associated with agricultural infrastructure, crops, and livestock due to Fiona that are not covered by existing Business Risk Management (BRM) programs and other federal or provincial programs.

This program is composed of four streams: 

I. Stream 1 Agricultural Infrastructure – will provide financial assistance for rebuilding/repairing damaged and/or destroyed agricultural infrastructure as a result of Fiona. To be eligible, the buildings must be currently insured.

II. Stream 2 Crops – will provide financial assistance to the agriculture industry for the extraordinary costs related to harvest and crops as a result of Fiona. 

III. Stream 3 Livestock – will provide financial assistance to the agriculture industry for the extraordinary costs associated with livestock as a result of Fiona. 

IV. Stream 4 Agricultural Land Clean-Up – will provide financial assistance to the agriculture industry for the extraordinary costs of cleaning up after Fiona; particularly for clearing downed trees from farm field access roads, tree lines, and hedgerows that are interfering with normal farming activities and to repair damaged fence lines. Other extraordinary costs will be considered on a case by case basis as determined by program administrators.
