About the company

Written by GovTribe AI ·

Centro Internacional De Mejoramiento De Maiz Y Trigo Internacional (Cimmyt), an international non-profit research and training organization headquartered in Estado de México, Mexico, operates as a federal grant recipient supporting U.S. and regional food security through agricultural research, crop improvement, and capacity building. Cimmyt functions primarily as a prime grant recipient (89% of recent awards) with selective sub-award engagement under university-led agricultural research programs.

Cimmyt's federal grant footprint concentrates almost entirely within the Department of Agriculture. The Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service accounts for 27 awards (92% of award count), followed by the National Institute of Food and Agriculture (3 awards) and the Foreign Agricultural Service (2 awards). The single large-dollar grant in the portfolio is a $39.5 million Department of State Environmental and Scientific Partnerships and Programs (CFDA 19.017) project grant awarded December 30, 2025, with completion targeted for December 29, 2026. This award funds Cimmyt's research and development activities focused on improving maize and wheat varieties, enhancing crop yields, and advancing sustainable agricultural practices through engagement with scientific partners, farmers, and private sector companies across North America, Central America, East Asia, and South Asia.

In its sub-award role, Cimmyt provides specialized germplasm development and agronomic field evaluation support to university-led breeding programs. Recent sub-awards include maize germplasm selection and micronutrient retention studies under a University of Wisconsin System prime (awarded February 23, 2024), and spring wheat line evaluation and yield assessment under UC Davis prime awardees (February 20 and May 18, 2026). Cimmyt's core contribution across sub-awards centers on access to global germplasm collections, field trial capacity at international research stations, and crop evaluation services for triticale and wheat breeding networks spanning multiple U.S. regions. Activity remains episodic — one award per year from 2023 through 2025, with two awards in 2026 — and one award reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months.
