ABOUT THE PROGRAM The WPLCCP is designed to reduce the economic impact of wild predators on cattle by reducing cattle losses using preventative measures. The secondary objective is to address damage reduction measures. The third objective is to provide compensation for a portion of the losses incurred where losses occurred prior to ranchers being able to take preventative measures, or where preventative measures were impractical or unsuccessful.
DELIVERY This program is delivered by the B.C. Agricultural Research and Development Corporation (ARDCorp) -- a subsidiary of the BC Agriculture Council -- whose mandate is to cost-effectively deliver programs and services to BC's primary agriculture industry.
