The CDFA application window is now closed for the State Water Efficiency and Enhancement Program

The State Water Efficiency and Enhancement Program (SWEEP) provides financial assistance in the form of grants to implement irrigation systems that reduce greenhouse gases and save water on California agricultural operations. Eligible system components include soil moisture monitoring, switching to low pressure irrigation systems, pump retrofits, variable frequency drives, and installation of renewable energy to reduce on-farm water use and energy.

Visit the California Department of Food and Agriculture Office of Environmental Farming & Innovation website for more information.

If you would like more information on the SWEEP application process, and how the RCD can help, check out our workshop powerpoint presentation here or contact Lauren Danna, US-LT RCD Program Manager at Lauren@us-ltrcd.org
