The New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets is seeking proposals from qualified entities to administer a grant program aimed at supporting socially and economically disadvantaged farmers across all counties in New York State. The program has a total funding pool of $2 million, with up to 15% allocated for administrative costs, and at least 85% dedicated to direct grants to eligible farmers. These grants, ranging from $5,000 to $250,000, are intended to assist with various activities such as farm startup, expansion, land acquisition, equipment purchase, marketing, and training, including projects on leased land. The program emphasizes participation from farmers who have faced discrimination or economic barriers, including urban farmers, and aims to foster equitable access to resources within the agricultural sector. The procurement process involves an open solicitation with key deadlines for registration, questions, and proposal submissions, culminating in a response deadline of December 17, 2024. The contract will be awarded for a four-year period, and the selected administrator will be responsible for managing the program, which may include collaborations with municipalities and nonprofit organizations. The initiative also encourages diversity in subcontracting, with goals set for minority, women, and service-disabled veteran-owned businesses. The contract is valued between $1.7 million and $2 million, and the program aims to ensure broad statewide impact, supporting disadvantaged farmers through a competitive grant process.
