NOTICE
To expedite distribution of Fiscal Year 2025 NIFA grant funds for the Urban, Indoor, and Emerging Agriculture program, some processes for this FY have changed. This program will not issue an NOFO in FY25. Funds will be distributed to existing projects or previously peer-reviewed and meritorious but unfunded proposals. NIFA will issue an NOFO in FY26 upon receipt of appropriations.

The program includes food value chain stages: production, harvesting, transportation, aggregation, packaging, distribution, and markets.
