The USDA ARS AI Innovation Fund is an annual intramural funding program from the Agricultural Research Service's Artificial Intelligence Center of Excellence (AI-COE) that directly supports the development and adoption of AI and machine learning tools in agricultural research. The FY2026 cycle funded 4-6 proposals at up to $100,000 each.
The program supports two primary categories of projects: (1) development or adaptation of AI/ML methods to help ARS scientists address agricultural research questions, and (2) creation of prototype digital products using AI/ML technologies for producers or agricultural researchers. Projects should utilize SCINet computing resources including the Ceres and Atlas high-performance computing clusters.
Proposals are limited to 2 pages plus an abstract (maximum 1,500 characters), and funds must be spent or obligated by end of the fiscal year. The program represents USDA's commitment to integrating AI into agricultural research across areas including crop science, soil health monitoring, livestock management, pest detection, and climate-smart agriculture.
While eligibility is limited to ARS scientists, the program produces open research outputs that benefit the broader agricultural AI community.
