This federal Cooperative Agreement award, totaling $202,985.07, was provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Risk Management Agency under the Risk Management Education Partnerships program (CFDA 10.460). The award supports Oregon Tilth, Inc., a non-profit organization specializing in organic agriculture certification, education, and conservation services, to deliver comprehensive risk management training and educational resources to agricultural producers across the United States. The primary objectives are to enhance producers' ability to make informed decisions and implement flexible risk management strategies through targeted initiatives, with a focus on supporting producers of crops not currently covered by federal crop insurance, specialty crops, and underserved agricultural commodities. The award period runs from September 1, 2024 to February 28, 2026, during which Oregon Tilth will collaborate with sub-awardees such as the Organic Trade Association, CCOF Foundation, and several universities to develop educational materials, conduct workshops, and provide direct producer outreach across the U.S., particularly in regions like the Northwest.
