The Crop Protection and Pest Management Competitive Grants Program seeks to address pest-related issues using integrated pest management approaches. The National Institute of Food and Agriculture requests applications under the Applied Research and Development Program and Extension Implementation Program to develop innovative strategies that ensure food security, respond to societal challenges, and promote economically viable and environmentally sound practices. Successful proposals will be evaluated based on technical merit, qualifications, facilities, and relevance to integrated pest management goals.

The Applied Research and Development Program will award up to $200,000 for single-institution projects and $325,000 for multi-state projects. Extension Implementation Program projects may receive up to $300,000 per year for three years. Funded work will be performed at eligible colleges and universities and address integrated pest management priorities at the state, regional, and national levels.
Synopsis
