The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced $3.38 million in grant funding awarded to three organizations through the Bison Production and Marketing Grant Program (BPMGP).
Awards will go to Mad Agriculture, National Bison Association and Flower Hill Institute.
The program will strengthen and enhance the production and marketing of bison and bison products in the United States through business and resource development and the advancement of innovative approaches to solving long-term needs in the bison sector, said USDA.
BPMGP award recipients will implement a competitive subaward program that will fund and support projects that address problems and challenges across the bison industry, said the agency.
BPMGP is administered by USDA’s Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS).
