The National Institute of Food and Agriculture is offering Capacity Building Grants for Non-Land Grant Colleges of Agriculture. These grants are aimed at helping institutions successfully compete for federal grants and other funding sources to carry out educational, research, and outreach activities related to agriculture. The grants can also be used to disseminate information on priority concerns to interested communities and encourage their participation in education, research, and outreach activities. Funding can be used for equipment and infrastructure acquisition, professional development of faculty, and the development of graduate assistantships. The grant opportunity does not require cost sharing or matching funds. The total program funding is $5,700,000, with an expected number of 20 awards. The award ceiling is $750,000 and the award floor is $150,000. The deadline for applications is January 16, 2024.
