2008 Speciality Crop Block Grant Program

The California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) will soon be announcing the availability of grant funds for the 2008 Specialty Crop Block Grant Program (SCBGP). California is the largest producer of fruits, vegetables and nursery crops in the U.S and has several different commodities that are grown only in California; therefore, CDFA will be seeking projects that enhance the competitiveness of specialty crops.
