Update: Specialty Crop Research Initiative Daniel L. Schmoldt National Program Leader

SCRI Legislation $230 million in mandatory funding Research and extension Priority given to multi-state and multi-institutional projects, and to projects that contain explicit mechanisms to communicate results to producers and the public Address the critical needs of the specialty crop industries by developing and disseminating science-based tools to address needs of specific crops and their regions 100% non-federal match requirement

SCRI Legislation Five focus areas (10% of funds in each area) Research in plant breeding, genetics, and genomics to improve crop characteristics Efforts to identify and address threats from pests and diseases, including threats to specialty crop pollinators Efforts to improve production efficiency, productivity, and profitability over the long term (including specialty crop policy and marketing) New innovations and technology, including improved mechanization and technologies that delay or inhibit ripening Methods to prevent, detect, monitor, control, and respond to potential food safety hazards in the production and processing of specialty crops, including fresh produce

SCRI Program Sustainability is the foundation of the program Applications must document how a holistic approach to sustainability is achieved Whole-systems approaches required Trans-disciplinary teams (biological, physical, and socio-economic disciplines) Stakeholder driven objectives, and involvement throughout the life of the project (advisory boards)

SCRI 2008 Results 231 applications reviewed using three panels ($266 million requested) $28.4 million awarded to 27 projects (9 planning grants) 31% success rate for planning grants, 9% for other grants For all grants, $1M mean/$500K median award For non-planning grants, $1.5M mean/$1M median award For all awards, 60% of funds retained by lead institutions Project TypesAwards CAP5 SDP3 RPI1 eX0 SREP9 Planning9
