About this program
The Department of Agriculture Risk Management Agency awards Cooperative Agreements under CFDA 10.455 to fund outreach and training programs that equip women, limited-resource, socially disadvantaged, and other underserved agricultural producers with information on financial management, crop insurance, marketing contracts, and risk management tools; the most recent grant awards were made on October 1, 2011.
No grant opportunities are currently open under this program. The most recent award activity ended in October 2011, making this program dormant for 15 years. Between 2001 and 2011, the program distributed 232 Cooperative Agreements totaling $24 million in federal obligated dollars. Award activity was episodic: 63 awards in 2007, one in 2008, 59 in 2009, 39 in 2010, and 68 in 2011. All funding came from a single source, the Department of Agriculture Risk Management Agency.
Representative recent awards included education and outreach efforts for risk management and marketing: a $135 thousand award in September 2010 to fund Appalachian Grown's capacity-building and marketing initiatives; a $100 thousand award in September 2010 for production, marketing, and risk management training for refugee farmers in Connecticut, New Hampshire, and Maine; and a $75 thousand award for risk management training for beginning farmers addressing local food challenges. Individual award sizes ranged from approximately $26 thousand to $135 thousand, with typical awards clustering around $75 thousand to $100 thousand.
The program operated exclusively through Cooperative Agreements, which required recipient engagement in joint planning and execution of outreach activities. Award periods typically ran one year, with completion dates in September or October of the year following the grant date.
Do not pursue this program. No solicitations have been issued since 2011, and no awards have been made in over a decade, indicating the program is no longer actively funding.
