Minnesota Ag Connection - 09/19/2017

The U.S. Department of Agriculture is now accepting applications for the 2018 Borlaug Global Research Alliance Fellowships. Fellows will work with a mentor at USDA's Agricultural Research Service or a U.S. university for up to 12 weeks on resilient agricultural research. The U.S. mentor will later visit the fellow's home institution to continue collaboration.

Objectives:

- Provide early-to-midcareer agricultural research scientists, faculty, and policymakers with individual training opportunities in resilient agricultural research

- Provide practical experience and exposure to new perspectives and/or technologies that can be applied in their home institutions

- Foster increased collaboration and networking to improve agricultural productivity and trade

- Facilitate the transfer of new scientific and agricultural technologies to strengthen agricultural practices

- Address obstacles to the adoption of technology such as ineffectual policies and regulations

The application deadline is Nov. 5.
