 What is
Multistate Project NC-213?NC-213 is a project team of engineers, scientists, and economists from leading U.S. land grant universities and government research centers that conduct research to create and disseminate the technical knowledge needed to manage quality food safety and bio-security efficiently in world grain markets. |
The NCRA is one of four regional associations with responsibility for facilitating cooperation of regional and national research. The research is supported in part by the Multistate Research Fund (MRF), which is a federal appropriation authorized by the Hatch Act. Additional support comes from other federal programs as well as state and private sources. The research program focuses on regional priorities that are identified and developed jointly by State Agricultural Experiment Station (SAES) Directors, Departmental Chairs and participating scientists.
What is next for NC-213 participants:
New and Renewal Process for NC-213. Mike Montross, Past Chairman (February 2007-February 2008), University of Kentucky led the Writing Committee. Mike worked with the current Chairman, Charlene Wolf-Hall, North Dakota State University, and Objective Chairs, Executive Committee Members, and Stations Representatives on this project. Watch for announcements from the Administrative Advisor's office and Mike Montross regarding the Renewal process. Next announcement tentatively April '08.
