Description: NIFA provides AFRI grants to support research, education and extension activities in six Farm Bill priority areas:
•Plant Health and Production and Plant Products;
•Animal Health and Production and Animal Products;
•Food Safety, Nutrition, and Health;
•Bioenergy, Natural resources, and Environment;
•Agriculture Systems and Technology;
•and Agriculture Economics and Rural Communities.
AFRI-funded science is vital to meeting food, fiber, and fuel demands as the world’s population races toward a projected 9 billion by 2050 concomitant with diminishing land and water resources and increasingly variable climatic conditions. In addition, AFRI programs help develop new technologies and a workforce that will advance our national security, our energy self-sufficiency, and the health of Americans.
