Our Consortia
The Ecosystem Services Market Research Consortium is conducting the research necessary to create a functional ecosystem services market, which pays farmers and ranchers for adopting conservation practices.
The IIC accelerates the development and adoption of novel water and energy-efficient irrigation technologies and practices through public-private partnerships.
Crops of the Future, a public-private collaborative, expands our knowledge of the traits that give rise to characteristics crops need to adapt to a changing future.
The International Consortium for Antimicrobial Stewardship in Agriculture (ICASA) advances research on antimicrobial stewardship in animal agriculture. This public-private partnership promotes the judicious use of antibiotics and improves animal welfare.
Precision Indoor Plants (PIP), a public-private partnership, helps food producers grow flavorful, nutritious food indoors. The consortium’s audacious research increases our ability to produce quality crops that are valuable and desired by consumers.
The Consortium for Innovation in Post-Harvest Loss & Food Waste Reduction is a team of global experts that aim to preserve nutrients, improve livelihoods and realize an efficient food system.
The Greener Cattle Initiative is an industry-oriented research consortium that will award approximately $5 million over the next five years to support research to mitigate enteric methane emissions from cattle. This audacious consortium provides global nutrition while also curbing the escalating climate crisis.
The Hemp Research Consortium fosters a deeper understanding of the relationship between genes, physiology and the environment to optimize industrial hemp production.
The Efficient Fertilizer Consortium is a public-private partnership that funds research to advance enhanced efficiency and novel fertilizer products and practices that are environmentally beneficial and agronomically productive.
