Farm Drought Support Grants closing soon.
The Farm Drought Support Grants, previously known as the On-Farm Drought Infrastructure Grants, are due to close on 30 June 2026, or earlier if program funds are exhausted.
The grants are a Victorian Government program delivered by Rural Finance to support eligible primary producers with on-farm infrastructure improvements and essential business activities that improve drought management and preparedness.
Eligible activities may include water infrastructure, stock containment areas, grain and fodder storage, pasture or crop re-establishment, and water carting for livestock and essential farm activities.
Applications are processed by Rural Finance in order of receipt, so farmers are encouraged to seek support early.
Need help understanding the grant or working through your application?
Rural Financial Counselling Service Victoria North East can support eligible farmers to understand the requirements, consider their options and work through the application process.
