Value-Added Producer Grants
(VAPG)
Welcome to the Value-Added Producer Grants (VAPG) (formerly known as the
Value-Added Development Grants) home page.
The VAPG Program was authorized by the Agriculture Risk Protection Act of
2000 and was amended by the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002,
better known as the 2002 Farm Bill. Grants may be used for planning
activities and working capital for marketing value-added agricultural
products and for farm-based renewable energy. Eligible applicants are
independent producers, farmer and rancher cooperatives, agricultural producer
groups, and majority-controlled producer-based business ventures.
The maximum amount that can be awarded is $500,000, and all VAPG funds must
be matched by an equal amount of funds from the applicant or a third party.
Applications are currently being accepted for the program. Please read the
funding announcement published in the Federal Register on June 9, 2004. The
announcement is also posted on this website. Approximately $13.2 million will
be available for grant awards in 2004.
For more information about the program, please read the program regulation
posted on this website or contact your State Rural Development Office to
obtain additional information and assistance. A contact person, address,
phone number, and e-mail address for each State Office is posted on this
website.
