Agricultural Prosperity for Small & Medium Sized Farms
3/26/2008 10:00 AMThis is an encouragement to submit proposals on sustainable agriculture issues to the National Research Initiative's "Agricultural Prosperity for Small & Medium Sized Farms" Program.
The submission deadline is June 5, 2008. The RFA can be found on pages 111-112 of the NRI Request For Applications: www.csrees.usda.gov/funding/rfas/nri_rfa.html.
As you will recall, proposals for this program must be "integrated" [contain at least two of the three functions: research, outreach, and education]. This year the program is highlighting involvement of Extension folks & curriculum development that involves K-12 teachers. The program also encourages applications on sustainable biofuel production.
If you need any assistance please contact Suresh Sureshwaran at 202-720-7536 or ssureshwaran@csrees.usda.gov.
