Description
The goal of the
Supplemental and Alternative Crops Competitive Grants Program (SACC) is to
significantly increase canola crop production and/or acreage by developing and
testing of superior germplasm, methods of planting,
cultivation, harvesting, and then transferring new knowledge to producers (via
Extension) as soon as practicable. Priority will be given to applications that
provide evidence of multi-state cooperation with a minimum of three state
cooperators and that utilize existing expertise of land-grant colleges and
universities and government agencies, including the U.S. Department of
