The National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) supports global engagement that advances U.S. agriculture. In an increasingly interconnected world, NIFA recognizes that collaboration with international partners through the Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (AFRI) can contribute to advances in U.S. agriculture, support the development of a competent agricultural workforce, and improve global food security.
Applications in response to AFRI Notices of Funding Opportunities (NOFOs) may only be submitted by eligible U.S. institutions. However, applications may include collaborations with international partners. Such applications may include subcontracts to international partners or other institutions and must clearly demonstrate benefits to the United States. In addition, AFRI may solicit joint collaborative project applications with international partners through specific program area priorities.
