The Biotechnology Risk Assessment Grant (BRAG) program and the AFRI Foundational program: Agricultural Economics and Rural Communities – Social Implications of Emerging Technologies play an essential role in fulfilling the mission of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Proper acknowledgment of your USDA BRAG and AFRI funding in published manuscripts, presentations, press releases, and other communications is critical for the success of our USDA's programs. This includes proper acknowledgment of the Program and agencies, as well as that of the Department and grant number (Please note that the ‘####-#####-#####’ below refers to your award number and not your proposal number).
We expect you to use the following language to acknowledge USDA/NIFA support, as appropriate:
'This work is supported by Biotechnology Risk Assessment Grant Program competitive grant award no. ####-#####-##### from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’ or 'This work is supported by Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (AFRI) Program competitive award no. ####-#####-##### from the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture.’
