The NSF and USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) have issued a joint Dear Colleague Letter inviting proposals for foundational research in agricultural robotics through the FRR program. This collaboration aims to advance robotics with transformative potential in agricultural contexts, addressing critical needs in farming, crop management, livestock systems, and agricultural sciences.
Proposals must present a compelling vision for pioneering robots in agriculture and be clearly justified by important agricultural needs. The program leverages NSF's robotics research expertise with NIFA's agricultural domain knowledge to accelerate innovation in farm automation, autonomous field operations, and intelligent agricultural systems. Awards range from $174,000 to $5,000,000 with rolling submissions.
