About CORE

Launched by the California Air Resources Board (CARB), the Clean Off-Road Equipment (CORE) Voucher Incentive Project accelerates the adoption of zero-emission off-road equipment by:

    • Removing upfront costs for buyers
    • Providing point‑of‑sale vouchers through participating dealers
    • Advancing California’s climate goals

Since its inception, CORE has supported widespread adoption across multiple sectors, and agriculture is one of the state’s fastest-growing areas of need.

Stackable Program for Greater Customer Savings


CORE vouchers can be combined with other state and regional agricultural funding programs to significantly reduce the cost of zero‑emission equipment. This can make your products more affordable, competitive, and accessible across California’s agricultural sector.

The Carl Moyer Memorial Air Quality Standards Attainment Program
The Carl Moyer Memorial Program provides grants to replace older, high-polluting off-road equipment with cleaner technologies.

FARMER Program
The Funding Agricultural Replacement Measures for Emission Reductions (FARMER) Program supports agricultural equipment replacement, agricultural electrification, and demonstration projects.
