It's another $50 million in additional funding for the Ontario Risk Management Program.

Minister of Agriculture Ernie Hardeman made the big announcement at DeVries Family Farms in Wellandport this afternoon.

He says this will benefit farmers in Niagara and beyond as they deal with market challenges and other risks beyond their control.

Wainfleet Mayor Kevin Gibson says this will help Niagara's farm-based economy become stronger than it already is.
