CSREES administers USDA's agricultural
research and education programs within
the U.S. university system as authorized
by various legislative acts. To continue
to receive these funds, cooperating institutions
must file plans of work, financial reports,
accomplishment reports, and status reports
on an ongoing basis—as well as provide
matching state and county funds.
