Opportunity Information: Apply for USDA NRCS CARIBBEAN CIG 16 01
The Caribbean Area Conservation Innovation Grants (CIG) aim to promote the development and implementation of innovative conservation methods and technologies, while enhancing environmental protection alongside agricultural practices. The focus is on projects that facilitate the transfer of successful conservation techniques to technical resources or the private sector. CIG supports the sharing of knowledge and technology among various stakeholders to broaden access to scientific advancements.
Eligible projects can include innovative on-ground conservation efforts, such as pilot projects and field demonstrations, but do not cover typical research initiatives except for on-farm conservation research. This specific type of research must be statistically valid and conducted on actual farm fields.
Proposals can be submitted by a range of eligible entities from Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands, including Indian Tribes, government units, non-profits, and individuals. Projects can last up to three years. All proposals will be assessed for completeness and compliance, and those that do not meet the criteria will be disqualified. A peer review panel will evaluate the complete proposals, which will then be presented to the Caribbean Area Review Board for further recommendations before final selection by the NRCS State Conservationist.Apply for USDA NRCS CARIBBEAN CIG 16 01
