Farm Bill
The conservation provisions in the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008
(2008 Farm Bill) will provide conservation opportunities for farmers and
ranchers for years to come. The new provisions build on the conservation gains
made by farmers and ranchers through the 1985, 1996 and 2002 Farm Bills. They
simplify existing programs and create new programs to address high priority
environmental goals.

DUNS Number Application Information

all applicants for Federal grants and cooperative agreements with the exception
of individuals other than sole proprietors, have a DUNS number. The
Federal government will use the DUNS number to better identify related
organizations that are receiving funding under grants and cooperative
agreements, and to provide consistent name and address data for electronic grant
application systems.
