About this program
The Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) funds animal disease surveillance, eradication, and control activities through CFDA 10.025, with the most recent grant award issued September 1, 2026.
The program funds concrete operational activities in animal health: disease surveillance and testing for cattle (brucellosis, tuberculosis, bovine spongiform encephalopathy), poultry (avian influenza, Newcastle disease), swine (African swine fever, classical swine fever, pseudorabies), sheep and goats (scrapie), and cervids (chronic wasting disease); animal disease traceability systems including official identification device distribution and electronic record-keeping; emergency response to foreign animal disease investigations; cattle fever tick eradication in quarantine zones; exotic animal disaster response coordination; and companion animal veterinary services in underserved rural communities. The program also funds youth education initiatives in agricultural and veterinary sciences, laboratory infrastructure replacement, and international disease surveillance capacity-building with partner nations endemic to high-consequence transboundary diseases.
APHIS dominates the funding structure, having obligated $7.71 billion across 20,806 awards (99.5% of all awards and federal dollars). The National Resources Conservation Service, APHIS Plant Protection and Quarantine, and Foreign Agricultural Service account for the remaining small share. Awards are predominantly Cooperative Agreements (98% of 20,917 total awards), with Project Grants representing 2% and minimal Block or Formula Grants.
Recent award volumes remain robust: 1,128 awards in 2022, 1,190 in 2023, 1,156 in 2024, 977 in 2025, and 221 through September 2026. Combined federal and non-federal dollars obligated total $9.58 billion, reflecting substantial recipient cost-share commitment.
Representative recent awards reflect the breadth: Northern Arizona University received $275 thousand for cattle fever tick genetic testing and acaricide resistance monitoring; Zoological Disaster Response, Rescue, and Recovery received $509.2 thousand for exotic animal emergency response network maintenance; Des Moines Area Community College received $184.8 thousand for veterinary science student internships at the National Veterinary Services Laboratory; Texas Animal Health Commission received $440.7 thousand for cattle fever tick fencing in Willacy and Cameron counties; and Lifestock International received $1.95 million to administer a network of international laboratories for transboundary animal disease surveillance. A Project Grant to an Alaska organization provided $750 thousand for veterinary care delivery to 80–140 rural Tribal communities lacking road access.
Open opportunities include Chronic Wasting Disease Cervid Management (approximately $12.05 million total, due June 15, 2026), with up to $6.05 million for farmed cervid activities; New World Screwworm Grand Challenge (up to $100 million, work plan updated recently), supporting sterile fly production enhancement, trap and lure development, and therapeutics; and Plant Protection Act Section 7721 projects (up to $90 million with at least $63 million anticipated for plant pest and disease management, averaging $130 thousand per award, suggestions due September 15, 2025). The program maintains consistent annual solicitation cycles for animal disease surveillance, traceability, preparedness, and response activities across state and tribal entities.
