Michael Fields Grants Advising is a free service for Midwestern farmers, agricultural entrepreneurs and institutions

MFAI’s Advisors can help you apply to grant, loan, and cost-share programs of state or federal sources that could help you with specific projects to develop your agricultural, forestry or related business, or answer a research question. These can be programs of any federal or state agency, not just the USDA, as well as private sources. We assist individual producers, associations of farmers, and agricultural, fishery and forestry-related businesses to both search for and apply to programs for which they are eligible.
