This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships program (CFDA 47.084) totaling $649,975 aims to develop and demonstrate an innovative approach to monitoring methane emissions from livestock using advanced gravimetric microsensor technology. The project is led by the Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences, a non-profit marine research organization, and involves sub-awards to The William H Miner Agricultural Research...
This $250,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Industrial Innovation will support the development of a fiber-optic gas sensing system for agricultural and industrial emissions monitoring by Iowa State University from March 2022 through February 2024. The university will advance a novel, field-deployable, wireless, and multiplexed optical sensor capable of detecting potent greenhouse gases and agricultural health hazards at part-per-million detection limits. This...
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) awarded a $649,989 Project Grant to Aether LLC, a small business located in Lovettsville, VA, under the SBIR/STTR Program (CFDA 10.212). The award funds the development of a commercially viable technology that can monitor methane emissions from various sources, including livestock farms, rice paddies, landfills, and oil and gas infrastructure. The proposed solution will provide real-time air pollution data...
This $749,764 federal Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (CFDA 10.310) aims to develop new knowledge that will guide targeted management approaches for consistently reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from agricultural soils. The project will focus on soil organic amendments as a management practice, developing biophysical and biochemical conceptual models to understand key driving processes of GHG production during...
This $649,827 project grant from the United States Department of Agriculture National Institute of Food and Agriculture will fund research on indirect nitrous oxide emissions from agricultural drainage water, streams, and wetlands in Iowa watersheds. The awardee, Iowa State University, will rigorously measure nitrous oxide from corn and soybean agricultural systems in the Midwestern US Corn Belt. Nitrous oxide is a potent greenhouse gas and largest climate change contributor from Corn Belt...
This $650,000 Project Grant awarded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) under the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program supports the development of advanced soil probes equipped with highly sensitive sensors to detect nitrogen oxide (NOx) and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from agricultural soils. The project, led by Rednox, Inc., aims to provide real-time data on gas emissions to help farmers optimize fertilizer application and...
The Regents of the University of California, Berkeley has been awarded a $646,167 Project Grant by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Institute of Food and Agriculture (CFDA 10.310 Agriculture and Food Research Initiative) to study methods for mitigating greenhouse gas emissions from the agricultural sector through the use of carbon markets. The first phase of the project involves developing an economic modeling framework to evaluate which emissions mitigation pathways, such as soil...
This $649,882 federal Project Grant awarded by the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) under the Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (AFRI) program supports research to quantify the reduction in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the use of efficient irrigation techniques in corn and cotton production systems. The overarching goal is to provide more informed climate-smart irrigation solutions and encourage their adoption by demonstrating the potential for emissions...
