About the company
Hawaii Agriculture Research Center, doing business as HARC, is a Hawaii-based non-profit agricultural research organization that delivers native Hawaiian seedling propagation, tropical-crop genetic improvement research, and disease-resistant plant variety development to federal agencies as a prime recipient under federal grant programs and as a prime contractor on purchase orders. HARC operates exclusively as a prime awardee (100% of recent awards) and competes full-and-open without set-aside designation.
HARC's federal customer base concentrates with the Department of Agriculture, which accounts for 22 of 24 total awards across its Agricultural Research Service, Forest Service Region 5 (Pacific Southwest), and National Institute of Food and Agriculture. The Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service Region 1 placed the single contract award. While the combined potential value across all awards registered at $156 thousand, HARC's actual obligated dollars total $7.2 million—a 46-fold ratio reflecting the organization's sustained performance on multi-year grant renewals and extensions rather than new solicitations in recent years.
HARC's capability portfolio centers on tropical-crop breeding, forest genetics, and native species propagation. Recent representative work includes a $301.256 thousand cooperative agreement from USDA's Agricultural Research Service (awarded June 2026, completion October 2028) to develop coffee leaf rust-resistant coffee varieties and improved cacao germplasm for Hawaiian growers, with tissue-culture and genomic-evaluation protocols; a $125.6 thousand Forest Service project grant (September 2023 to June 2026) to develop disease-resistant Acacia Koa for landscape-level restoration; and a $156.292 thousand firm fixed-price purchase order from U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Region 1 (awarded September 2025, completion January 2029) for the production and delivery of approximately 25,200 native Hawaiian tree seedlings—including Fusarium-resistant koa, ohia, and iliahi varieties—to support burned-area rehabilitation at James Campbell National Wildlife Refuge. Award activity has declined over the past five years (three awards in 2021 to one in 2025 and 2026), with two awards reaching ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months and therefore exposed to recompete.
