The Organic Agriculture Research and Extension Initiative (OREI), under assistance listing 10.307, seeks to solve critical organic agricultural issues, priorities, or problems through the integration of research,education, and extension activities. The purpose of this program is to fund high priority integrated projects that will enhance the ability of producers and processors who have already adopted organic standards to grow and market high quality organic agricultural products, mitigate and adapt to climate change, build resilience of the organic farming system, and protect water and other resources. Priority concerns include biological, physical, and social sciences, including economics.
