Individuals, nongovernmental organizations, public agencies and other organizers are among the applicant groups named in the notice. The funding is for community education and learning among agricultural producers, not an announced payment to every farm adopting a soil practice.
Organizers should use the department’s grant portal at https://udafgrants.utah.gov/submit and consult the current eligibility material before submitting an event plan. The notice requires funded events to take place during calendar year 2027 and sets awards between $1,500 and $10,000. It does not state that every eligible application will receive funding.
The stated cutoff is November 20 at 5 p.m.; the release does not explicitly label the deadline’s time zone. Applicants should confirm that detail and any budget requirements with the department before relying on the cutoff. The linked partnership project page still shows a closed 2025 cycle, while its project index and the department’s newer notice describe the 2027 opening; older instructions should not be treated as the current application contract.
