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-

ship of natural resources, prevent
agricultural pollution and improve
farm profitability.
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.
All farmer grant applications
must be postmarked by Dec. 11,
1998. Decisions will be an
nounced in March 1999.
