Important Update for Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) Account Users

 

Please be advised that when you open an Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) account to make your farm plan declarations for AgriInvest, your account setting for mail will default to “paperless”.

If you require assistance, please contact AgriInvest at 1-866-367-8506
