About the program

The On Farm Connectivity Program Round 3 assists Primary Producers to take advantage of digital agribusiness solutions to boost productivity and improve safety. The grant is provided as a rebate to Approved Suppliers following the sale, delivery, installation, and training, where applicable, of eligible equipment to eligible Primary Producers. Eligible Primary Producers must access the program through an Approved Supplier.

The program forms part of the Australian Government’s Better Connectivity Plan for Regional and Rural Australia.

To support equitable access to funding, assessments will be prioritised for applications where the primary producer has not previously received a benefit under earlier rounds of the On Farm Connectivity Program.

See the DITRDCSA website for further information on Approved Suppliers and eligible equipment.
