The Rollover Protective Structures (ROPS) Rebate Program makes tractor safety equipment affordable and simple to order.
Amount available
For Fiscal Year 2027 (July 1, 2026, to June 30, 2027), we have approximately $75k for this and the Grain Storage Facility Safety Grant programs.
Eligibility
- Minnesota farmers and schools may apply.
- Retrofits are for tractors built before 1987.
- ROPS kits must be certified to the appropriate national or international standards.
- Used, certified rollbars are only allowed if none are commercially available – contact the National ROPS Rebate Program BEFORE buying used equipment.
Grant amount
The program covers at least 70% of the cost of purchasing, shipping, and installing a rollover protection kit (roll bar and safety belt). Your costs are limited to no more than $500 per tractor.

The application period for this program is currently closed. Check back for application details this summer.
