Agency Name: Agricultural Trade Promotion Program 10.618
Description:
Program Overview, Objectives, and Priorities: The ATP is a cost–share program that 
is designed to reimburse nonprofit U.S. agricultural trade organizations, nonprofit state regional 
trade groups (SRTGs), U.S. agricultural cooperatives, and state agencies that conduct approved 
foreign market development activities and have suffered damages as a result of tariffs imposed 
on U.S. agricultural products in 2018/2019. For–profit U.S. commercial entities that do not 
exceed 300 percent of the small business size standards established for their particular industry at 
13 CFR 121.201 may participate in a branded program through an ATP Participant. Although 
small for–profit, nonprofit, and government entities will receive full consideration under the 
ATP, FAS gives priority to organizations that have the broadest producer representation and 
affiliated industry participation of the commodity being promoted. Information, including a link 

to the program regulations, is available on the FAS website at: 

Under the ATP, FAS enters into agreements with eligible Participants to share the cost of 
certain overseas marketing and promotion activities, including activities that address existing or 
potential non–tariff barriers to trade. Financial assistance under the ATP is made available on a 
competitive basis, and applications are reviewed against the evaluation criteria contained herein 
and in the ATP regulations. All U.S. agricultural commodities, except tobacco, are eligible for 
consideration.
