Webinar Summary
Funding advanced technology research for plant pathogens of regulatory concern can be a difficult task to navigate. The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) provides funding through the Plant Pest and Disease Management and Disaster Prevention Program (PPDMDPP) and the National Clean Plant Network (NCPN) Programs under the authority of the Plant Protection Act (PPA) Section 7721. This session aims to provide information on funding sources from the Plant Protection Act Section 7721 via USDA APHIS PPQ funding resources for research or outreach regarding regulated plant pathogens. Participants in the webinar will gain insight into the program support areas, what a successful proposal looks like, and have time for questions and answers from the speakers.
