NIFA is soliciting applications for the Farm Business Management and Benchmarking (FBMB) program to improve the farm management knowledge and skills of agricultural producers by maintaining and expanding a national, publicly available farm financial management database to support improved farm management. Additionally traditional ecological knowledge is an acceptable topic of research, education, and extension for projects funded by this RFA, in pursuit of the aforementioned priorities, goals, and objectives.

The FBMB program aims to strongly support intellectual talent and collaborative efforts to maintain the national, publicly available farm financial management database needed to meet the challenges facing the nation’s agriculture and food systems. Meeting these challenges will require innovative approaches that foster multi-disciplinary projects. This means that farm management producers must be educated and prepared to work effectively across disciplines in order to work to solve agricultural and educational challenges. The FBMB program supports all producers to develop farm management knowledge that is consistent with the food and agricultural priorities of USDA/NIFA.

The assistance provided by these programs, to the extent practicable, shall be coordinated and delivered in cooperation with similar services or assistance by other Federal Agencies or programs supporting improved farm management. The Secretary may give priority to applicants that:
1. Demonstrate an ability to work directly with agricultural producers.
2. Collaborate with farm management associations and financial management education programs.
3. Address the farm management needs of a variety of crops and regions of the United States; and
4. Contribute data to support the national farm financial management database.

The purpose of this NOFO is to support comparative effectiveness trials to investigate the feasibility, effectiveness, and cost-effectiveness of telehealth-based interventions to detect and manage glaucoma among high-risk populations. This NOFO aims to support the study of replicable and scalable interventions that use real-world, payer-provider reimbursement structures within community-based, health care delivery settings in various regions of the United States. Outcomes should be relevant to clinical practice, public health, community implementation, and policy. This NOFO also supports the cost-effectiveness analyses of proposed interventions. The resulting data will assist policymakers, clinicians, and patients make informed decisions to reduce the burden of glaucoma and improve the quality of life for millions of people.

This NOFO will be accomplished through two components, Component A: Comparative effectiveness trials among high-risk populations within community-based settings, and Component B: a coordinating center to provide scientific and logistical support to Component A studies. 

Component A: Number of Awards: four (4); Estimated Funding: $2,750,000

This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is designed to understand the feasibility and acceptability of providing long-acting injectable antiretroviral therapy (LAI-ART) to incarcerated persons with HIV who are soon to be released from state prison facilities. The ultimate goal is to support the development and implementation of effective, sustainable, replicable LAI-ART programs. People with HIV living in prison facilities are often released to the community lacking support for ongoing HIV care. There is a paucity of programs for this population demonstrating effectiveness with retention in care and maintaining sustained HIV viral suppression after release. The use of LAI-ART prior to and at the time of release from prison may improve adherence to HIV treatment, retention in care, and maintenance of viral load suppression among persons reentering the community. Applied qualitative and quantitative research resulting from this funding is expected to strengthen adherence to ART and is aligned with the HIV National Strategic Plan (2022-2025) and the Ending the HIV Epidemic in the U.S. (EHE) initiative “Treat” Pillar.
