Single-stage call; opens 4 February 2027, closes 11 May 2027 at 17:00 Brussels time.
This Horizon Europe Cluster 6 topic funds AI-based advisory tools that give farmers and foresters timely, personalised and practical decision support on farm and forest management, with the explicit aim of improving competitiveness and sustainability.
It is a single-stage Innovation Action in lump sum format, opening 4 February 2027 and closing 11 May 2027 at 17:00 Brussels time, with a total budget of 11,800,000 euros, an EU contribution of 5,000,000 to 6,000,000 euros per project, and two projects expected.
Required deliverables are concrete: practical, field-tested solutions reaching Technology Readiness Level 8 by project completion, curated and interoperable datasets meeting FAIR standards, multimodal data processing spanning text, images, audio and video, and integration with European agriculture data infrastructure.
Projects must demonstrate real-world use across diverse European settings rather than in a single region or farming system, which is the requirement that most often determines consortium design. The multi-actor approach is a mandatory element, meaning farmers, foresters and advisory services must be genuine project partners shaping the work rather than recipients of a finished tool.
Recommended consortium composition runs to 10 to 14 partners spanning multiple EU regions and including at least one innovative SME with existing AI or agtech products, university partners supplying AI, data science and social science expertise, and agricultural advisory or extension networks.
Applicants should verify the final budget, dates and topic conditions on the EU Funding and Tenders Portal, since work programme figures are revised before call opening.

This Horizon Europe Cluster 4 topic funds transnational innovation projects that take AI solutions into low- and middle-income countries, and it is one of the few EU AI instruments explicitly built around Global South deployment rather than European-only consortia. Scope covers accelerating AI adoption by optimising models and systems on local data, improving deployment efficiency in real operational environments with constrained connectivity, power and maintenance capacity, and strengthening local innovation ecosystems in education, healthcare, agriculture and environmental sustainability. Projects are expected to move from Technology Readiness Level 5 to Level 7 over three to four years, meaning the call rewards teams with a working system to field rather than an idea to research. The indicative budget is 1,500,000 euros in total with up to two projects funded, implying an EU contribution of roughly 750,000 euros per project, around 810,000 US dollars at prevailing rates, which is small by Horizon Europe standards and suits a tight consortium rather than a fifteen-partner structure. The call opens 17 November 2026 and closes 18 March 2027 at 17:00 Brussels time. Standard Horizon Europe eligibility applies: at least three independent legal entities from three different Member States or Associated Countries, with associated countries including Canada, Japan, New Zealand, Norway, South Korea, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, and LMIC participation explicitly welcomed. Confirm the final budget, action type and conditions on the EU Funding and Tenders Portal, since work programme figures are revised before call opening.
This Horizon Europe Cluster 5 topic funds large-scale operational validation and upscaling of state-of-the-art and generative AI tools and models for a next generation digital energy system, sitting in Destination 3 on sustainable, secure and competitive energy supply within the 2026 to 2027 work programme. Expected outcomes centre on advanced, secure and frugal AI tools for real-time grid operations, market operations and consumer empowerment in increasingly distributed energy systems, which places the topic at the intersection of AI, climate mitigation and energy transition rather than in pure digital research. Approximately 10,000,000 euros of EU contribution is expected per project with two projects anticipated, and the submission deadline is 31 March 2027. The topic is an Innovation Action, meaning the work must demonstrate at operational scale in real energy systems rather than in laboratory conditions, and the explicit reference to frugal AI signals that evaluation will weigh computational and energy efficiency of the AI itself, a growing requirement in European calls that applicants frequently underestimate. Cluster 5's 2027 calls include complementary climate-modelling topics, notably HORIZON-CL5-2027-01-D1-07 on advancing understanding, modelling and prediction of extreme events in a changing climate at roughly 6,000,000 euros per project, so applicants should position against the right topic. Prospective applicants should confirm the budget, deadline and topic conditions on the EU Funding and Tenders Portal, since Horizon work programme figures are revised between adoption and call opening.
The EuroHPC JU AI and Data-Intensive Applications access call is Europe's standing route to free large-scale GPU time for artificial intelligence work, and it is aimed squarely at industry, SMEs, startups and public sector entities rather than only academic consortia. Supported work covers ethical AI, machine learning and data-intensive applications with explicit emphasis on foundation models and generative AI including large language models. Allocations are measured in node hours on LUMI, Leonardo and MareNostrum5, granted for one year, with resources typically exceeding 50,000 GPU hours depending on the system; no cash is awarded, so the figures recorded here are an estimate of commercial-equivalent value at prevailing GPU-hour rates rather than a published award size. The call operates on a rolling first-arrived-first-served basis against periodic cut-off dates running to the end of 2033, with access typically granted about one month after the cut-off following evaluation on excellence, innovation and impact, and implementation quality. Alongside this call, the newer AI Factories access routes offer faster, smaller entry points: Playground access for AI SMEs and startups approved within two working days, Fast Lane access of up to 50,000 GPU hours for up to three months approved within four working days, and Large Scale access above 50,000 GPU hours on deadline-based cut-offs, all free to qualifying European AI SMEs and startups with commercial pay-per-use options for other industrial users. Submissions go through the EuroHPC peer-review portal; note that Fast Lane access has been temporarily closed at points in 2026, so verify which routes are live.
Missouri's Department of Agriculture has reopened its Urban Agriculture Cost-Share Grant — reimbursing 75% of project costs up to $10,000, with applications due September 15, 2026. A companion Food Insecure Cost-Share Grant closes August 26. Here is how these small, fast state grants work, who qualifies under the Census 'urban area' definition, and how to layer them with the federal USDA Urban Agriculture and Innovative Production program for a durable urban-farming funding strategy.

Every major term moved in the applicant's favor after Round 1 produced two awards — but a state invasive-species management plan naming catfish is now a hard eligibility gate, and it is the requirement most processors cannot satisfy on a nine-week timeline.
