ADF APPLICATION PROCEDURE CHANGING

The Agriculture Development Fund (ADF), administered by Saskatchewan Agriculture, Food and Rural Revitalization (SAFRR), is changing its application procedures effective immediately.

The first change is that ADF has implemented one deadline date each year for research proposals, rather than two dates. The new deadline date is April 15th. Previously, the deadline dates were May 15th and Nov. 15th.

The second change is that ADF now requires researchers to submit a Letter of Intent, rather than a full application form, to initiate the application process.

A form for the Letter of Intent will be available to researchers on March 15th and information about the procedure for submitting the Letter of Intent will  be available on SAFRR's website at www.agr.gov.sk.ca

The deadline for the Letter of Intent is April 15th.

For details about ADF, contact the Agriculture Research Branch in Regina, 306-787-6566.

Please note – The ADF Letter of Intent does NOT need to be formally submitted to Research Services for an institutional signature – you may send your LOI directly to SAFRR.
