Understanding AgriStability
Understanding AgriStability is an information series aimed at answering our customers’ most common questions about the program.
AgriStability Program Guidelines
The AgriStability Program Guidelines are the main set of rules for the program.
Technical Information Circulars
The
Technical Information Circulars (TICs) provide direction on how to apply program rules within Ontario’s unique circumstances. OMAFRA provides new and updated TICs to Agricorp as required.
CAIS Handbook
The
Canadian Agricultural Income Stabilization (CAIS) handbook provides details about the 2003 to 2006 CAIS program. In many cases, it provides direction for AgriStability as well. The CAIS handbook is a summary of program rules, but hasn’t been updated for AgriStability.
RC 4060
Ontario producers should use the RC4060 Farming Income and the AgriStability and AgriInvest Programs Guide when they complete their T1163 (individuals) or Statement A (corporations, trusts and special individuals). This guide also includes the commodity and program payment codes that you should use on your T1163 or Statement A forms.
Fair Market Values (FMV)
Agricorp uses FMVs to value all crop and livestock inventory on your Schedule 2, provided they are reasonable for your operation.
OMAFRA provides updated FMV lists to Agricorp each month.
