The International Fresh Produce Association's pilot program project, which was submitted with a group of partners, has been selected by the U.S. Department of Agriculture to receive funding. The project, titled A Vibrant Future, will incentivize growers of specialty crops to adopt climate-smart production in order to establish a consumer-driven, climate-smart market for fruits and vegetables grown using climate-smart practices. The approximate funding ceiling for the project is $15 million.
