Deadline Approaching For Sustainable Ag Grants

The Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA) reminds Minnesota farmers and others of the upcoming January deadline for its Sustainable Agriculture Demonstration Grant Program. This 25-year-old program provides grants to test ideas focusing on conservation, energy, profitability, and/or farmers’ quality of life.
