BFRDP funds organizations to develop and offer education, mentoring, and technical assistance programs for beginning farmers and ranchers with 10 or fewer years of experience. Programs help new agricultural producers develop the skills, knowledge, and networks needed to establish and grow successful farm operations. Priority is given to programs serving veterans, socially disadvantaged, and immigrant farmers.
