Three grants for sustainable and regenerative agriculture are now available from the US Department of Agriculture, National Geographic Society and Growing Justice Fund.
“Based on climate models, agricultural systems will face increasing challenges related to weather, climate, pests and diseases, deteriorating soil quality and other changing conditions.
These agricultural systems rely on the stewardship and innovation of farming communities worldwide,” said the National Geographic Society.
The Growing Justice Fund is offering planning grants of up to $25,000 and implementation grants ranging from $50,000 to $250,000.
The $300 million in grant funding is available through the USDA’s Agriculture and Food Research Initiative – Foundational and Applied Science Program (AFRI).
