R&D- Agriculture: Insect And Disease Control (Management/Support)

The Product and Service Code (PSC) AA16 encompasses research and development (R&D) activities focused on agricultural insect and disease control management and support. This category covers scientific investigations, experimental studies, and technical support services related to identifying, analyzing, and developing strategies for controlling agricultural pests and diseases. The scope includes laboratory research, field testing, and development of innovative approaches to mitigate agricultural threats from insect populations and plant disease vectors.

Typical federal contract awards under PSC AA16 primarily involve agricultural research institutions, academic laboratories, and specialized biotechnology firms conducting targeted studies on pest management. These contracts frequently originate from agencies such as the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Agricultural Research Service (ARS), with award values ranging from $50,000 to $2 million. Contract durations typically span 12 to 36 months, often utilizing small business set-aside provisions to support specialized research entities. Performance locations are predominantly concentrated in agricultural research centers, land-grant university facilities, and specialized research campuses across agricultural regions of the United States.

No specific Federal Contract Opportunities were provided within the submitted materials for detailed analysis. To obtain current opportunities within this PSC category, interested parties would need to consult current federal procurement databases such as SAM.gov or agency-specific solicitation platforms for the most recent research and development contract notifications related to agricultural insect and disease control management.
