The American Lamb Board has been awarded a USDA Advancing Markets for Producers grant and is now seeking 150 U.S. sheep producers to participate in the program.
Selected producers may receive up to $23,000 to help identify production inefficiencies, develop conservation and farm management plans, and adopt new technologies aimed at improving productivity while reducing emissions. Participants will also receive support services, including access to a Technical Service Provider, electronic identification tools, soil sampling, and NSIP ultrasound and genetic consulting.
Applications for the program are open through May 1, with selected producers expected to be notified by June 1, 2026. For each producer, the program will start once the required eligibility documents are submitted and will conclude on September 30, 2028. For more information, go to lambboard.com.
