Description of Thursday’s Webinar:
Under the Fertilizer Production Expansion Program (FPEP), USDA is making $500 million in grants available to increase American-made fertilizer production to spur competition and combat price hikes on U.S. farmers. Competitive grants of up to $100 million are available to support and expand independent, innovative, and sustainable fertilizer and nutrient alternatives production in the U.S. and its territories to supply American farmers. Potential applicants and other stakeholders are encouraged to attend to learn about FPEP opportunities and application requirements.
IFCA will keep our members informed if we receive any other information from USDA regarding this program. If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to call the office or email KJ Johnson at kj@ifca.com.
