Funds projects that turn existing invasive-species research into real prevention policy and action.

OpenU.S. Department of AgricultureUnited States

Projects that use existing invasive-species risk and pathway research to produce concrete improvements in regulatory frameworks, policy and action that reduce new arrivals and establishment of invasive pests threatening American agriculture. This funds applying existing knowledge, not new basic research to generate it.
