SARE Grants

by Carol Elder last modified November 29, 2005 03:24 PM

Grant funding is available each year through the Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education program of the US Department of Agriculture.

SARE is a competitive grants program providing grants to researchers, agricultural educators, farmers and ranchers, and students in the United States.

  • Research and Education Grants: Ranging from $30,000 to $150,000 or more, these grants fund projects that usually involve scientists, producers, and others in an interdisciplinary approach.
  • Professional Development Grants: To spread the knowledge about sustainable concepts and practices, these projects educate Cooperative Extension Service staff and other ag professionals.
  • Producer Grants: Producers apply for grants that typically run between $1,000 and $15,000 to conduct research, marketing and demonstration projects and share the results with other farmers and ranchers.
  • Other grant opportunities: Graduate students, community development practitioners, and ag educators conducting on-farm research can apply for grants in some SARE regions.
