About This Opportunity

The Sun Grant Program, administered by USDA-NIFA, provides grants primarily to land-grant universities for research, education, and extension projects focused on sustainable energy, agriculture, and biobased products. While businesses in these sectors may benefit through partnerships with universities or by leveraging the program's research outcomes, this program is not a direct funding opportunity for businesses to apply to.
