Showing 141 - 150 of 1802 projects

Sustainable Northwest     |     OR     |     2021
This project is an electric tractor demonstration and analysis.
The Ohio State University     |     IA     |     2021
The goal of this project is to demonstrate High Clearance Robotic Irrigator (HCRI), a new and innovative technology, to address offsite nutrient loss at the farm level.
Latino Equity, Advocacy, and Policy Institute (LEAP)     |     CA     |     2021
This project will test food waste pasteurized anaerobic digester leachate as liquid fertilizer (FWDD) and compost in four different Historically Underserved (HU) urban areas of California to determine if this leads to healthier soils and more climate change resilience.
Maine Mountain Collaborative     |     ME     |     2021
The EFIF seeks to systematically pair philanthropic support with private capital to acquire and manage a forest that, given time, could not only produce more timber but also provide important ecological benefits ranging from improved wildlife habitats to increased carbon storage. If successful, the fund will overcome the financial constraints that currently limit the large-scale implementation of Exemplary Forestry management and other conservation practices, including NRCS cost-share practices in Maine and regionally.
Arkansas Land And Community Development     |     AR     |     2020
The use of drones for pest control management offers farmers innovated approaches for protecting their crops with reduced usage of chemicals. The main goal of this project is to develop a methodolgoy for agriculture pest management that incorporates drones as a major augmentation to traditional methods of pest management and is user friendly for vegetable producers.
Indian Land Tenure Foundation     |     AZ, CO, KS, NE, NM, OK, TX     |     2020
The goal of this project is to develop and pilot an operational web-based tool to assess and quantify the co-benefits of enhanced land-based carbon sequestration produced through ecosystem conservation an restoration activities on tribal lands.
Brigham Young University     |     UT     |     2020
The project goal is to conduct evaluations and demonstration trails with participation of producers and other value chain members on newly developed seed coating technologies and planting techniques for wildlife improvemnet projects.
Whiteriver Regional Irrigation     |     AR     |     2020
Reduce in-field water use by 10% through improved irrigation water management and improve profitability by implementing innovative technologies such as water reuse. This project will utilize and develop advanced technology for irrigation scheduling to reduce water consumption through more efficient water capture and storage and demonstrate water reuse with proper scheduling and incorporation into irrigation water management (IWM) plans.
American Council for An Energy Efficient Economy     |     CO, IL, MA, OR, PA, WA     |     2020
The project will innovate a market transformation initiative to accelerate resource efficiency throughout the controlled environment agricultural (CEA) sector.
Heart of the Rockies     |     AZ, CA, ID, MT, NM, OR, WA     |     2020
This project will accelerate innovation by developing a community of practice to implement nonlethal predator control techniques across diverse social and ecological contexts. Through a diverse partnership, the project will evaluate the effectiveness of techniques across occupied grizzly bear and wolf habitat, examining potential for new NRCS conservation practices and developing collaborative strategies and producer guidelines for nonlethal predator control.
