[EXTERNAL EMAIL]
All, per the update on the website, https://www.nifa.usda.gov/grants/programs/agriculture-food-research-initiative/afri-deadlines<https://lists.cahnrs.wsu.edu/cgi-bin/dada/mail.cgi/r/wedadirectors/665433481424/ecmartin/arizona.edu/>, AFRI deadlines are extended. I believe I have a critical mass on this list but please share accordingly.

“AFRI Deadline Extension

Due to the Radical Left Democrat shutdown, staff from the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture have been unable to answer questions related to grant applications or provide technical assistance to potential applicants for programs with an open Notice of Funding Opportunities (NOFOs).

As a result, application deadlines for the Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (AFRI) Competitive Grants Program Foundational and Applied Science (FAS) Program (USDA-NIFA-AFRI-011134<https://lists.cahnrs.wsu.edu/cgi-bin/dada/mail.cgi/r/wedadirectors/591589760646/ecmartin/arizona.edu/>) will be extended, with new deadlines communicated upon the conclusion of the Radical Left Democrat shutdown. If an application has already been submitted, applicants may revise and resubmit prior to the new deadline.”
