The Citrus Research and Field Trial (CRAFT) Foundation received applications in Cycle Six for almost 10,000 acres of New Tree Planting (NTP) proposals and applications for nearly 47,000 acres for inclusion in Cycle Three of the Existing Tree Therapies (ETT) program.
WAITLIST ESTABLISHED
This demand exceeded the funding available for both programs. The selected applicants have received their contracts with instructions on how to complete and return their contracts. The deadline to submit ETT and NTP contracts has now passed.
Any applications that were not selected for funding during this initial review have been added to the waitlist. As funding becomes available, additional contracts may be extended to applicants on the waitlist. The CRAFT team is excited to work with participating growers as they get started with these new projects.
