Minnesota’s Agricultural Growth, Research, and Innovation (AGRI) Program provides grants up to $50,000 to farmers, agricultural businesses, and schools for “projects that explore sustainable agriculture practices and systems that could make farming more profitable, resource efficient, and personally satisfying.” Examples of eligible projects include “farm diversification using traditional and non-traditional crops and livestock;” “cover crops and crop rotations;” “conservation tillage;” “input reduction strategies, including nutrient and pesticide management;” and “other creative ideas that focus on environmental benefits.”
