Join USDA NIFA staff to discuss some of their competitive grant programs focused on horticulture. This workshop will examine ways to get an insider’s perspective on how to write a competitive grant, the grant application review process, and the importance of impact reporting. While the focus of the workshop will be on the Specialty Crop Research Initiative (SCRI), we will also cover other grants of interest such as the AFRI Sustainable Agricultural Systems (SAS), the Organic Agriculture Research and Extension Initiative (OREI), and the Organic Transitions Program (ORG). Whether you’ve been awarded NIFA grants before or not, this workshop will have something for you: sharing essential information on how to be successful throughout the granting process. Speakers: Jessica Shade, Thomas Bewick, Megan O'Reilly, Mathieu Ngouajio
