Directory of Selected International Grants, Exchanges,
Fellowships, and Collaborative Research Opportunities in Agriculture  

July 1996

FOREWORD

This directory provides an overview of a selected number of funding opportunities for agriculturally related research. Each listing provides a brief summary of the funding opportunity, describing the field of study, purpose of study, eligibility requirements, financial provisions, duration, number of annual awards (or as specified), application deadlines, and contacts within the organization. Efforts have been made to obtain updated information; however, most programs are revised regularly. We therefore recommend that you contact each organization directly for more complete and current information.

We thank the organizations for their cooperation in providing the information contained in this publication. We also acknowledge the contributions of Rebecca Weber, Timothy Fratta, Lucia Claster, Carol Wilson and DeAndra Beck in compiling this document.

The information presented in this document was assembled as a service to interested scientists. We do not endorse the organizations listed, nor do we accept responsibility for program modifications or the administration policies of the organizations.
