Extractions: Home Business USDA Grants ... USDA Specialty Crop Grants By Sara Hickman eHow Contributor updated: July 14, 2010 I want to do this! What's This? Flowers are one of the many specialty crops. The Specialty Crop Research Initiative is a set of grants used to solve problems in the specialty crop industry. According to the USDA this program only considers applicants that focus on one of five areas, Plant research, pests control, efforts to improve productivity, innovations and technology and food safety hazards with specialty crops. Those interested must apply as part of a Federal agency, national laboratory or college and university. In 2010 grants were available for up to $10 million. As a way to generate competiveness in some states, the USDA offers a Specialty Crop Block Grant Program. This money is available to any individual or group that grows specialty crops for domestic or foreign markets. This grant is given as a priority for those who wish to use the money for marketing, pest and disease control, protecting resources, enhancing food safety and implementing innovation within the specialty crop industry. Applicants must apply through their local Farm Service Agency office. As of 2010, each project can be granted up to 1/3 the cost of their project.

Extractions: IPM Strategies more... Crops Integrated Pest Management IPM Strategies Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is the judicious use and integration of various pest control tactics in the context of the associated environment of the pest in ways that compliment and facilitate the biological and other natural controls of pests to meet economic, public health and environmental goals. Wherever applicable, IPM uses scouting, pest trapping, pest resistant plant varieties, sanitation, various cultural control methods, physical and mechanical controls, biological controls, and precise timing and application of any needed pesticides. With IPM, the decision to use pesticides is made when an action threshold for a pest is reached and no other alternative management methods are available that will provide effective control. When pesticides are needed, the safest and most effective materials should be selected for use. The goals of IPM are to achieve the effective management of pests in the safest manner.

The program is designed to fund the development of new integrated pest management approaches or the improvement of existing IPM systems. The program areas included in this Program RFA are: 1) Crops at Risk; and 2) Risk Avoidance and Mitigation. Projects funded within these program areas will cover a broad range of new methodologies, technologies, systems and strategies for implementing integrated crop and pest management programs.

Advertisement “Agricultural production has always advanced by improving seed,” says Jurg Blumenthal, Texas AgriLife Extension corn and grain sorghum specialist. “We went from Indian corn to improved varieties and to hybrids after World War II,” Blumenthal said during the Blackland Income Growth (B.I.G.) Conference in Waco. “Then we went to genetically modified technology.” He said those advances have improved yield potential and protected crops against losses from insects, diseases and environmental stresses. “More than 80 percent of our major crops are GMO,” he said, “but we still see controversy, especially in Europe and Japan with export limits. The consensus in the United States is that biotechnology benefits the environment.” He said Texas has not been able to take advantage of all the yield enhancements from biotechnology that other areas, especially the Midwest, have enjoyed. “We’ve not been able to keep up with the grain yield. Yields have been stagnant, primarily because of drought." But technology to deal with environmental stresses may be coming.
