Climate Change Adjustment Program CCAP
By Administrator
March 6, 2009

An advice and training grant of up to $5500 is available to both you and your partner, if you meet the eligibility test, and may be used to receive advice and training from recognised professional advisers and registered training organisations, TAFE and universities.

The grant may be used for activities such as financial assessment and planning, and advice and training directly or indirectly related to climate change impacts. The grant can also be used to obtain legal and personal advice where the advice is linked to managing the impacts of climate change, including if you decide to sell the farm.

If you choose to join the program, a Farm Business Analysis and Financial Assessment will be conducted to identify possible areas for improvement. This assessment will help you develop a climate change action plan, outlining the aims and steps required to manage the impacts of climate change and improve the farm's long-term prospects.
