2024 REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS (RFP) FOR CORN RESEARCH

The Wisconsin Corn Promotion Board (WCPB) is accepting proposals related to corn production stewardship and expanded uses for corn.

GENERAL RESEARCH PRIORITIES

Proposals addressing needs in Production Stewardship should focus on the following topics related to corn production in Wisconsin: soil fertility, nutrient management, water quality, drainage systems, agronomics, tillage and soil health, or genetics. Proposals addressing needs in Expanded Uses should focus on: new product development utilizing corn, ethanol or other distilled product utilization, green chemistry, expanded co-product utilization or export, or novel utilization for livestock. Economic return as predicted value to a Wisconsin corn farmer is considered a very important component of funded research. Where applicable, estimation of the cost to a farmer of an adopted practice or discovery OR potential economic value to a farmer of an adopted practice or discovery is strongly encouraged to be included in the proposed research.
