The Economic Research Service (ERS) of USDA is offering this grant to fund economic research focused on U.S. agricultural participation in proposed greenhouse gas markets. This grant is for studies examining agricultural activities and land use practices that enhance carbon sequestration or reduce greenhouse gas emissions within the U.S. agriculture sector. Proposals should address key areas, including estimating supply curves for agricultural greenhouse gas reductions, ensuring the integrity of these reductions within market mechanisms, and exploring the influence of non-neoclassical behavior in their provision. ERS will award up to $150,000 per project for a maximum of three years, with approximately $500,000 total funding available. The deadline for submissions is June 14, 2010.

| Description: | The Economic Research Service (ERS) of USDA is accepting proposals for fiscal year 2010 for economic research in three broad areas related to U.S. agricultural participation in proposed greenhouse gas markets. The research should focus on the economics of agricultural activities and practices, including agricultural land use, that increase carbon sequestration or reduce greenhouse gas emissions, together referred to as greenhouse gas reductions. Proposals must focus on U.S. agriculture. Of particular interest is research on (1) estimates of supply curves of greenhouse gas reductions from U.S. agriculture, (2) the integrity of agricultural greenhouse gas reductions procured through markets, including provisions designed to enhance this integrity; and (3) the role of non-neoclassical behavior in the provision of agricultural greenhouse gas reductions through markets. ERS will accept proposals under this program for funding levels of up to $150,000 for a period not to exceed 3 years. Total funding available for this research is approximately $500,000. The deadline for proposal submission is June 14, 2010. |
