N.C. universities partner on CROPS Project with $1M funding from the NSF
As North Carolina’s top economic driver, agriculture is practiced in every corner of the state. But, most of the research and technological innovations that could benefit and grow the $103 billion industry are housed within companies and universities in more urban areas of the state.
To address this gap in access, researchers at Wake Forest, along with nine other university, business, state agency, and research partners, have received a $1 million National Science Foundation (NSF) Regional Innovation Engines grant to develop a 42-county Agricultural Tech Innovation Corridor.
