Funding Opportunities

Iowa State University seeks ideas and proposals for a unique program pairing farmers with Iowa State University researchers to work on topics related to conservation and sustainability. The program is a partnership of the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences and Practical Farmers of Iowa. Its goals are to address the opportunities and challenges facing agriculture through collaborative, on-farm research. A total of $25,000 will be awarded in 2010. Annual, one time grants up to $5,000 maximum will be awarded. Awards to three or more producers proposing to work together may be up to $7,000 each.
