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.
