Deadlines This Week: Two Grant Opportunities for Dairy Producers

Center for Dairy Excellence

Deadlines are approaching this week for two grant opportunities available to dairy producers through the Center for Dairy Excellence. If you’re looking to invest in new technology on your dairy operation, or prioritize your marketing/branding efforts if you sell your dairy products to the public, these are excellent opportunities to help offset costs. Make sure you submit your grant applications by the end of this week!

  • Marketing/Branding Consulting Services Grants – Due October 31. If you’re a value-added dairy business looking to work with a consultant to build your brand, create a marketing plan, and identify appropriate strategies to increase product sales and consumer access, you have until October 31 to apply for this grant. The grant is open to value-added dairy businesses, including dairy farms and small-scale dairy businesses, in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, and New Jersey. Click here to learn more about this grant.
  • Dairy Innovation Grants – Due November 1. If you want to invest in new technology on your dairy operation, the Center is accepting pre-applications for Dairy Innovation Grants until November 1. The program (through the PA Dept. of Agriculture) support investments that embrace technology to improve efficiency and data analytics on dairy operations; enhance production; and increase energy efficiency on the farm or in ag processing. Click here to learn more about this grant.
