Report: Evaluation of the Agricultural Disaster Relief Program

“This report presents the findings of the Evaluation of the Agricultural Disaster Relief Program (ADRP), which is the program that provides the federal share of disaster assistance to agricultural producers under the federal-provincial-territorial (FPT) AgriRecovery Framework. This evaluation assessed the relevance and performance of the ADRP and the federal involvement in the AgriRecovery Framework, which is administered by the ADRP. Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada’s (AAFC) Office of Audit and Evaluation (OAE) conducted the evaluation as part of AAFC’s Five-year Departmental Evaluation Plan (2014-15 to 2018-19). The evaluation fulfills the requirement under the Financial Administration Act that all grant and contribution programs be evaluated every five years”--Introd., p. 6.
