Application Packets are required to be submitted on-line. See instructions at the website above and Appendix G of the manual. It is highly recommended that you review the instructions as soon as possible to become familiar with the on-line application process.

The Arizona Department of Agriculture anticipates that these grant monies will be available to successful applicants by late 2021. Although USDA-AMS has not officially released SCBGP funds to the states, AZDA projects that approximately $2,880,000 will eventually be available to be distributed in the fiscal year 2021 funding cycle.
