Two Grant Programs For Northeast Producers BURLINGTON, VL Appli cations are available for the Northeast Region Sustainable Agriculture Research and Educa tion (SARE) Program’s 1999 farmer grants. Northeast SARE offers two kinds of grants to producer-ini tiated and managed projects that will advance knowledge about al ternative production and market ing practices. “These grants provide a won derful opportunity for farmers in terested in evaluating new ideas,” said Northeast SARE Program Coordinator Fred Magdoff. “Many farmers and growers have had an idea but didn’t have the time or the resources to fully test it. Here’s a program which helps farmers to try something new that may end up significantly helping their farms.” Through the seven-year-old Farmer/Grower Grant Program, SARE helps producers conduct farm-based experiments to answer their own production and market ing questions. Farmer/Grower Grant proposals may address any food, non-food or forest crop pro duction or marketing issue. Proj ect activities may include small research trials, educational activi ties and demonstrations. Through its two-year-old SEED (Special Evaluation, Education and Demonstration) initiative, Northeast SAKE will provide grants to producers willing to farm-test selected, alternative practices. Previous SARE-sup ported research has shown that these practices improve farm prof itability, reduce pesticide use, pro tect soil, and/or enhance quality of life. The goal of both programs is to develop and refine systems and practices that promote steward- CLASS 115 5-YEAR-OLD COW: 1. Kyle Dumond. 2. Eric Eltz. CLASS 115 6-YEAR-OLD COW & OLD ER' 1.

Northeast SARE will award up to $150,000 through its producer grant programs. Grants will be awarded on a competitive basis to fanners in the 12-state region. In the past, grants have ranged from $3OO to about $B,OOO. Reviewers will give preference to proposals that clearly define lo cal sustainable agriculture prob lems or issues and propose solu tions. Projects must be led by one or more producer, include a pro fessional technical advisor (an ex tension agent, for example) and outline a plan for sharing gained information with others in the community. Any producer within the North east is eligible to apply; however, proposals based at research or educational institutions are not eli gible for fanner grants. Proposals from those institutions are eligible for funding through SARE’s two other grant programs. (For more information on those programs, contact the SARE office at 802-656-0471.) The Northeast region includes Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland. Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Is land, Vermont, West Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
