National Research Initiative - Agribusiness Markets and Trade
The Agribusiness Markets and Trade program will not be offered in the FY 2008. This program is offered in alternate years and will be accepting applications again in FY 2009 at an anticipated funding level of approximately $5.1 million. Success of the U.S. economy in general, and agribusiness and rural communities in particular, is increasingly dependent on maintaining and expanding domestic and international markets. It is also dependent on the development of new products, production practices, and business and marketing tools and information that enhance efficiency, equity and the competitiveness of the producer. The long-term goals of the Agribusiness Markets and Trade program are: (1) Provide knowledge to enhance economic efficiency and equity in US agribusiness sector; (2) Support research that builds international market opportunities; and (3) Provide economic analysis to assist with new product development and insertion in the value chain. Please carefully review the RFA guidelines to ensure application acceptance.
