Current Projects & Resources

The following research projects were gathered from USDA-NIFA's REEport system (formally referred to as CRIS). REEport is the US Department of Agriculture's (USDA) documentation and reporting system for ongoing and recently completed research projects in agriculture, food and nutrition, and forestry. Projects are conducted or sponsored by USDA research agencies, state agricultural experiment stations, land-grant university system, other cooperating state institutions, and participants in a number of USDA-administered grant programs, including Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR), National Research Initiative (NRI), and Biotechnology Risk Assessment (BRAG).

Project material is based upon work supported in part by the National Institute of Food and Agriculture, US Department of Agriculture, under Agreement No. 2008-51130-19548. Any opinions, findings, conclusions, or recommendations expressed in the publication are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the view of the US Department of Agriculture.
