Summary
The USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) is soliciting applications for the Methyl Bromide Transition Program (MBTP). This program supports research and extension activities aimed at developing and adopting alternatives to methyl bromide, a soil fumigant being phased out under the Montreal Protocol due to its ozone-depleting properties. Funded projects are expected to advance practical, economically viable alternatives for agricultural producers who have historically relied on methyl bromide.
