Funding Opportunities
Many grant programs provide assistance for improving agricultural practices, both at the federal level and in individual states. Some are annual opportunities, and others are one-time offerings.
Look for programs that are currently accepting applications in ATTRA’s funding opportunities section below. ATTRA also features news on projects that have been awarded funding through state and federal programs and offers insight on funding sources available to rural communities and for working lands conservation.
