The grant funding can be used to hire an independent third party to create a business plan for the dairy. While the grant does not cover capital purchases, it will fund plans for operations, environmental upgrades, and business transfers.
The grant pays 50% of the cost to develop a plan, up to $5000.00.
Applications are funded on a first-come first-served basis. For more information on the Dairy Business Planning Grant, visit the Dairy Business Planning Grant website.
