Description
The
Supplemental and Alternative Crops Competitive (SACC) Grants Program will
support the development of canola as a viable supplemental and alternative crop
in the United States. The goal of the SACC program is to significantly increase
crop production and/or acreage by developing and testing of superior germplasm, improving methods of planting, cultivation, and
harvesting, and transferring new knowledge to producers (via Extension) as soon
as practicable. Extension, education, and communication activities related to
the research areas above must be addressed in the proposal.
