The USDA’s Risk Management Agency (RMA) has announced up to $2 million in funding for cooperative agreements to provide risk management training for farmers and ranchers.

Universities, county cooperative Extension offices and nonprofits can use these funds to develop educational tools to help producers address long-term risks and challenges. Interested organizations must apply through the Risk Management Education Partnerships Notice of Funding Opportunity on grants.gov by March 11.
