Under the award, South Carolina State University will identify collaborators and partners interested in innovative and sustainable farming technologies. It will introduce new alternative technologies to increase farm profitability, conservation, mitigation, and adaptation strategies to address climate change impacts. The university will leverage its expertise in agriculture, food, natural resources, and human sciences to provide technical assistance to private landowners, conservation districts, tribes and other organizations. The goal is to assist these stakeholders in conserving soil and water resources through environmentally-sound approaches.
