The Supplemental and Alternative Crops (SAC) program is designed to help expand the use and acreage of alternative crops in the U.S. These crops can be used for food, animal feed, and industrial products, offering new options for farmers facing low prices for traditional crops. The program supports projects that promote these crops, which can also help with pest control and provide habitats for pollinators.
Who it's for: This grant is open to a wide range of applicants since it is listed as 'UNRESTRICTED'. This means that individuals, organizations, and institutions interested in agricultural projects related to alternative crops can apply.
