The Canada-Ontario Research and Development (CORD) Program was a research and development program for non-supply managed farm groups. Through the Agricultural Policy Framework (APF), the federal and provincial governments agreed to provide “wedge funding” for the province’s companion program. The CORD-P is one program under the companion fund.

CORD-P IV was a $35 million program that was launched in 2005 and ended in March, 2008.

The goal of CORD-P was to improve industry competitiveness and increase diversity and self-reliance through applied research and development.

Since 1996, the CORD-P funding has been administered by the Agricultural Adaptation Council (AAC) on behalf of the Ontario Agricultural Commodity Council.

This program is now closed.
