<strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">Funding Decisions</span></strong><br>
NCR-SARE administers each of its grant programs with specific goals, audiences, and timelines. Funding considerations are based on how well the applicant presents the problem being addressed, its relevance to sustainable agriculture in the 12-state North Central
region, farmer-rancher engagement in the project, and how well it aligns with NCR-SARE's goals. <br>

support from an NCR-SARE Partnership grant, Marie Raboin with Dane County Land Conservation was able to support and create intentional spaces for a group of farmers who were willing to take a chance on establishing and utilizing cover crops on their farms
to improve soil health.<br>
<br>
“This grant facilitated real change on a landscape scale by giving farmers the space to learn from one another and valuing the time of the experienced farmers,” said Raboin. “The change that has occurred can be seen driving 55 mph down a county road. The difference
can also be seen as the confidence grows in a young group of farmers who want to improve water and soil quality on their farms. They are becoming leaders in their community.”<br>
