Agricultural producers continually look for ways to improve crop production. Although old methods and technology are still practiced and used on some farms today, most producers now integrate sophisticated high tech knowledge and equipment to improve crop production.

Every year, the General Fund awards monies for new research projects aimed at advancing and improving agricultural technologies. For fiscal year 2006-2007, the General Fund awarded $337,844 to initiate 35 new projects. Those projects are listed in the Current Projects section of this website.

GUIDELINES

Guidelines for project proposals will be posted on this site every April. Oregon State University Faculty interested in agricultural research are encouraged to apply.
