National Research Initiative - Air Quality
Agriculture, forest, and range production practices have increasingly become subject to state and federal regulations that are meant to protect air resources. The long-term (10 year) goals of this program are: a) develop emission data for agriculture, forest, and range production practices that will lead to emission reduction targets that will significantly improve air quality and protect human and environmental health; b) develop mitigation strategies that will increase adoption of best management practices to reduce agricultural emissions; and c) improve understanding of odor, gases, and particulate matter (PM) measurement, production, flux, fate and transport that will lead to a better understanding of the environmental fate of emissions. A Letter of Intent is required for integrated applications only. Applicants are strongly encouraged to read the entire Program Description section for current priorities and additional information relative to the program of interest. Please carefully review the RFA guidelines to ensure application acceptance.
