Opportunity Information: Apply for USDA NIFA OTHER 009752
The Open Data Framework (ODF) grant opportunity is a discretionary funding program from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Institute of Food and Agriculture (USDA NIFA). Its goal is to support the creation of a neutral, secure framework for an agricultural data repository and cooperative. In practical terms, the program is aimed at building the underlying structure, rules, and technical approach needed so that multiple stakeholders can store, manage, and share data responsibly. The emphasis is on making data sharing work across different groups while maintaining trust, security, and neutrality, so participants feel confident contributing information and using what others provide.
At the center of the opportunity is the idea that better data infrastructure can speed up agricultural innovation. By creating a shared framework where producers, universities, and nonprofit entities can collaborate around data, the program is designed to help drive technological progress in agriculture and related fields. The intended outcomes include improvements in production efficiency (for example, better decision-making based on shared datasets, analytics, and benchmarking) and stronger environmental stewardship (such as using data to reduce inputs, improve soil and water management, and track sustainability outcomes). The opportunity positions data as a foundational resource that can enable new tools, research, and operational improvements across the agricultural system.
Eligibility is limited to organizations, rather than individuals, and applicants must meet all requirements laid out in the Request for Applications (RFA). The notice makes clear that failing to satisfy eligibility criteria by the application deadline can lead to removal from consideration or prevent NIFA from making an award. The agency also points new applicants to NIFA's Grants Overview as a helpful resource for understanding federal financial assistance and the federal awards process, signaling that compliance and process readiness are important parts of submitting a viable application.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity title "Open Data Framework" and the opportunity number "USDA NIFA OTHER 009752."
