This Dairy Processing Research & Development Innovation Grant will support the research and development necessary to position Northeast dairy processors to make long term, impactful shifts in their businesses as it relates to economic and environmental sustainability.
Funded projects will be centered on developing alternatives to current industry standards through projects that are applicable, scalable, and replicable to other Northeast dairy processors. Topic areas may include, but are not limited to, sourcing, novel product development, alternative production solutions, transportation and distribution, supply chain, operations, employee welfare, marketing, and consumer experience.
Projects are required to include an information sharing or educational component targeted at small and midsized dairy processors in the Northeast.
The Request For Applications is available on our website. The application period is January 26 - March 23.
This grant is open to processors in all 11 NE states that we serve: Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Vermont.
