说明

The Southern Region Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education (SARE) Program recognizes the value and importance of on the farm producer experience in developing solutions to agricultural production problems. In order to capture this producer experience, the Southern Region SARE Producer Grant program is requesting grant proposals from producers or producer organizations interested in conducting research or marketing projects related to sustainable agriculture.The purpose of this grant program is for farmers/ranchers to conduct projects to solve problems they face and develop information on what works and doesn't work so that other farmers and ranchers facing those same problems can benefit from the results of the funded project.SSARE Producer Grants are not designed to pay a farmer to farm. They are designed to take some of the financial risk away from trying a solution. Remember, trials to test ideas and solutions to farming/ranching challenges do not require seeding 50 acres for example. Make sure that your proposal is designed to test an idea that, should it be successful, you'll later try yourself on a larger scale.
