In response to the significant challenges faced by Ontario farmers this spring, especially beekeepers and poultry farmers, the deadline for 2022 AgriStability applications and fee payments have been extended to June 30, 2022.

Beekeepers and poultry farmers can apply for an interim payment up to 75%.

This extension gives new and existing AgriStability customers more time and flexibility to assess evolving risks and consider how AgriStability can help manage those risks. Additionally, in response to overwinter hive losses and avian influenza, Ontario beekeepers and poultry producers who participate in AgriStability can apply for a 2022 interim payment to receive up to 75% of their estimated final payment.
