On-farm Drought Infrastructure Rebate Scheme

The On-Farm Drought Infrastructure Rebate Scheme offers 2 rebates to assist primary producers in implementing infrastructure projects that assist with managing current drought conditions and strengthen preparedness for future droughts.

You can apply for reimbursement of eligible costs already incurred or seek pre-payment for infrastructure yet to be purchased. Where payment is made in advance, funded activities must be completed within 6 months of receiving grant funds.

Only one application will be accepted per ABN for a primary production business – except for Tier 1 applicants who applied on or before 17 April 2025 who are eligible to access additional funding under Tier 2.
