Tile Drainage Loans
Installing tile drainage is a very common land improvement practice among farmers in Ontario. Corrugated plastic tubing, clay and concrete drain tile are installed beneath the surface of agricultural land to drain excess water from the crop root zone. The benefits of tile drainage for crop productivity, farm efficiency and even for reducing environmental impacts have been studied and are generally well known to farmers. For more information, visit OMAFRA.
In Ontario, the Tile Loan Program, authorized by the Tile Drainage Act, provides loans to agricultural property owners to help them finance these tile drainage projects.
Landowners in The Township of Brock planning to install a tile drainage system on their agricultural land are eligible for a tile loan under The Tile Loan Program.
To start the loan process, fill out the Drainage Loan Application Form (applications must be made on the prescribed form) and return to the Municipal Office to the attention of the Clerk's Department. Applications must be submitted to Council for approval.
