The Foundation for Food & Agriculture Research (FFAR) is announcing the 2021 Seeding Solutions program and is inviting applications for audacious research that benefits farmers, consumers and the environment. FFAR seeks to award up to ten meritorious proposals across our Challenge Areas, prioritizing those projects that emphasize a commitment to cross-sector partnerships.
Individual awards will range from $300,000 to $1 million and all projects must have planned durations ranging between 12 and 60 months. All grants require matching contributions equal to or greater than the FFAR funding request. At least 50 percent of matching funds must be a cash match per FFAR’s definition of cash.
Pre-Applications Due: March 10, 2021 5:00pm ET. An approved pre-application with an invitation to submit a full application is required for submission.
