About agriculture grants

Agriculture grants fund farming, conservation, research, and food systems work, with a strong emphasis on sustainable and conservation-minded production. The USDA is the dominant funder through agencies like the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), the National Institute of Food and Agriculture, and Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education (SARE). Farmers, ranchers, nonprofits, universities, and tribes are common applicants.

Frequently Asked Questions

What grants are available for agriculture?

Funding supports conservation practices, sustainable and regenerative agriculture, research and education, urban agriculture, and food systems. USDA/NRCS offers tools like Conservation Innovation Grants, and programs such as SARE fund farmer-driven research. Many programs prioritize conservation outcomes and serving historically underserved producers.

Does the USDA fund agriculture projects?

Yes. The USDA is the primary funder of agricultural grants, working through the Natural Resources Conservation Service, the National Institute of Food and Agriculture, and the SARE program, among others. The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation also funds adoption of regenerative agriculture and conservation practices on private working lands. Eligibility varies widely by program.

Can nonprofits and farmers both apply for ag grants?

Yes. Many USDA programs are open to farmers and ranchers, while others target nonprofits, universities, tribes, and government agencies, and some encourage partnerships among them. Reviewing each program's eligibility carefully matters, since a grant aimed at producers differs from one aimed at organizations serving them. Partnerships can broaden access to programs an applicant could not pursue alone.
