Agriculture Programs
California Climate Investments programs in regenerative agriculture and land management are putting innovative technologies and viable strategies into action to combat climate change. California Climate Investments are reducing important greenhouse gas emissions, including carbon dioxide, the most abundant greenhouse gas, along with potent short-lived climate pollutants, such as methane. A few key examples include, investments in building the resilience of California’s food systems, support California’s farmers and ranchers, and methane emissions reduction efforts in dairy and livestock operations.
Open and Upcoming Funding Opportunities for Agriculture Projects
Explore programs that are now accepting applications for grants, loans, incentives, and more.
The Strategic Growth Council’s Sustainable Agricultural Lands Conservation (SALC) Program protects critical agricultural lands from conversion to more GHG-intensive residential uses by facilitating conservation easements and strategy plans that result in direct protection of at-risk lands.
Vouchers toward the purchase of zero-emission equipment used in off-road freight transport (such as forklifts, transport refrigeration units, gantry cranes, and terminal trucks).
Funding Agricultural Replacement Measures for Emission Reductions funds agricultural harvesting equipment, heavy-duty trucks, agricultural pump engines, tractors, and other equipment used in agricultural operations.
Installation of energy efficiency measures and upgrades like solar PV and health and safety improvements for farmworker dwellings at no cost to residents.
