Emergency Citrus Disease Research and Extension Program - Pre-Applications
NIFA requests pre-applications for the ECDRE program to address priorities identified by the Citrus Disease Sub-committee (CDS) of the National Agricultural Research, Education, Extension and Economics (NAREEE) Advisory Board through projects that integrate research and extension activities and use systems-based,
trans-disciplinary approaches to provide solutions to U. S. citrus growers.
The overarching goals and desired outcomes for the ECDRE program are:To combat Huanglongbing (HLB) and its disease complex in order to continue to be able to farm citrus in a financially sustainable way through collaborative approaches and knowledge;Transition from component-focused research to deploying research outcomes and conclusions on farms; andEncourage research teams to bring knowledge together to find grower solutions to combat and prevent HLB infection.
The ECDRE program will address these needs through the promotion of collaboration, open communication, the exchange of information, and the development of resources that accelerate application of scientific discovery and technology to farm-level solutions for HLB.Proposals funded by the ECDRE program in FY 2024 will provide a plan for addressing one or more of the nine priority needs (priorities listed in order of importance) to target grower needs with a focus on producer implementation.
