Innovation Research Program (SBIR) - Phase II All Phase II projects must have previously completed a successful USDA
Phase I project before applying for a Phase II grant. Success rates for
applicants have been 50-60% for Phase II. Projects dealing with

technologies are encouraged across all 2017 SBIR topic areas. USDA SBIR's
flexible research areas ensure innovative projects consistent with USDA's
vision of a healthy and productive nation in harmony with the land, air, and
water. USDA SBIR has awarded over 2000 research and development projects
since 1983, allowing hundreds of small businesses to explore their
technological potential and providing an incentive to profit from the
commercialization of innovative ideas. Visit NIFA's website for more
